About Black Ore

Black Ore builds Tax Autopilot, an AI system that ingests a client's source documents, classifies them, auto-populates and calculates the 1040 and workpapers, and routes flagged items through a CPA review layer before the firm files. It sells to firms, not taxpayers.

Founded by Eyal Shinar (previously founder of fintech unicorn Fundbox) and funded with $60M led by Andreessen Horowitz and Oak HC/FT, Black Ore moved from a 4,000-firm waitlist — including 40% of the Top 20 US CPA firms — to broad availability in April 2026.

What the AI does

Tax Autopilot reads and classifies uploaded tax documents, auto-populates and calculates 1040 returns and workpapers, and routes exceptions to human CPA review.
