1

Ask & Analyze Intake & AI-Driven Assessment

Every great engagement starts with a thorough intake. Taxvelocity conducts an AI-powered interview to identify the client's tax situation, flag complexity, surface IRS transcript data, and automatically generate a personalized research agenda — before your CPA opens a single source document.

AI-Powered Tax Situation Analysis

Describe the scenario in plain English. Taxvelocity identifies relevant code sections, regulations, and risk areas instantly — no keyword search required.

Gather & Deliver Secure Digital Document Collection

Chasing documents is one of the biggest time sinks in public accounting. Taxvelocity's secure client portal, smart document checklist, and AI-powered extraction engine means you spend minutes reviewing — not hours requesting, uploading, and manually keying data.

Secure Client Portal

Clients upload documents directly via a branded, encrypted portal. No email attachments. SOC 2 certified upload pipeline with full audit trail per document.

Smart Document Checklist

AI-generated document checklist based on entity type and prior-year returns. Automatically marks items received, tracks outstanding, and sends client reminders.

E-Signature Capability

Engagement letters, 8879s, and authorization forms collected via built-in e-signature. Eliminates print-sign-scan cycles and accelerates engagement kick-off.

3

Prepare AI Processing with CPA Review

This is where Taxvelocity's research engine does the heavy lifting. Complex questions get answered in seconds, deductions are analyzed against current law, multi-state nexus is evaluated automatically, and a first-draft memo is generated — all ready for your CPA's expert review and sign-off.

Cited Tax Research

Complex research questions answered in under 60 seconds with full IRC citations, Rev. Rulings, PLRs, and CCAs. Every answer is hyperlinked to source.

Intelligent Deduction Analysis

AI scans each client entity for deduction opportunities, missed credits, and potential overstatements — before preparation begins, not after filing.

Multi-State Preparation

Automatic nexus evaluation across all 50 states. Apportionment analysis, filing obligations, and estimated tax calculations handled with current-year law.

4

Advise Actionable Guidance and Tax Planning

Compliance is table stakes. The real value your firm delivers is planning. Taxvelocity transforms raw research into client-ready advisory outputs — tax planning summaries, scenario comparisons, and engagement documentation — so your CPAs spend client time on strategy, not formatting.

Client-Ready Insights & Memos

Auto-generated client memos summarize findings, explain positions in plain language, and include CPA review sign-off. Ready to deliver, not ready to rewrite.

Tax Planning Opportunity Detection

AI surfaces planning opportunities — entity restructuring, timing strategies, retirement plan optimization, and credit harvesting — with estimated dollar impact.

Organized Engagement Documentation

Every deliverable is organized in the engagement file with version history, approval records, and source citations. IRS-ready documentation from day one.

5

Manage Practice Management and Optimization

The engagement isn't over when the return is filed. Taxvelocity's practice management layer helps you track firm-wide performance, optimize utilization, monitor year-round compliance obligations, and build the visibility you need to grow sustainably.

Firm Performance Analytics

Track utilization, realization, and per-client profitability across your practice. Identify where capacity is going and where margin is being left on the table.

Workflow Efficiency Optimization

AI identifies patterns in your team's work — bottlenecks, review cycles, common queries — and surfaces recommendations to streamline future engagements.

Year-Round Compliance Monitoring

Proactive alerts for estimated tax deadlines, extension filings, annual reporting obligations, and regulatory changes that affect your client base.

Before & after Taxvelocity

The same engagement, transformed

Here's what a typical S-Corp tax engagement looks like before and after deploying Taxvelocity across your team.

Without Taxvelocity

Manual intake call (45 min)

CPA runs through checklist by hand. Notes scattered across email, paper, and CRM. Research agenda not captured.

Document chase via email (3–7 days)

Repeated follow-ups for missing items. Documents arrive in inconsistent formats. Manual data entry begins.

Research session (3–6 hours)

Senior associate searches Checkpoint or CCH manually. Complex questions escalated to manager. Citations compiled by hand.

Memo drafting (1–2 hours)

Associate writes from scratch. Manager reviews and rewrites. Client communication delays downstream.

Ad-hoc filing, no consistency

Documentation quality varies by preparer. IRS correspondence requires reconstructing the file. No visibility into firm utilization.

With Taxvelocity

AI intake & analysis (3 min)

CPA reviews AI-generated assessment, approves questionnaire, and starts with a full research agenda before the first client call.

Secure portal collection (same day)

Client uploads via branded portal. AI extracts and validates immediately. Smart checklist auto-tracks what's missing.

AI research (under 60 seconds)

Complex questions answered with full IRC citations, Rev. Rulings, and PLRs. CPA reviews and approves doesn't rebuild from scratch.

Auto-drafted client memo (10 min review)

First draft memo generated automatically. CPA edits and approves. Consistent quality regardless of who prepared it.

Structured engagement file + analytics

Every action logged. Documentation IRS-ready. Utilization and realization tracked automatically across the firm.
