The premise
Tax prep is 80% organizing documents and 20% applying judgment. AI can dramatically compress the 80%; it cannot give you tax advice and shouldn't try.
What AI does well here
- Categorize receipts and invoices into tax-relevant buckets
- Spot likely deductible expenses missing from records
- Generate a checklist of documents needed by category
- Match 1099s and W-2s against your records
What AI cannot do
- Render tax advice or interpret tax law
- Make filing decisions on entity structure or deductions
- Replace your CPA or tax attorney
