Frequently asked

Can AI prepare a tax return end to end?
It can draft one. Products in this category populate returns from source documents and flag anomalies, but a licensed preparer reviews and signs. Throughput claims are vendor-reported — confirm current figures with the firm’s own materials.
Does AI tax prep software replace Drake, UltraTax, or CCH?
Not usually. Several tools deliberately work inside existing professional software because firms will not migrate their tax engine, so the AI populates the return in the system the firm already trusts.
How should a firm ask about client-data handling?
Ask the vendor: do you have a SOC 2 report we can review? How do you handle IRC §7216 consent if return information is disclosed to a third party? Is client data used to train models? TaxAIs does not certify SOC 2, §7216, or any other compliance status.
