Workspace · Highest frequency

Every January. Every line auditable.

~100M U.S. filing households. ~60M with complexity beyond a W-2. Average prepared-return spend $323 (NSA, 2024). The deadline is non-negotiable — and every line on the return needs a sourceable record behind it. We sit between the chaos of receipts and the cleanliness of a filed return. The CPA looks better for it. The household pays less for it.

In your first month

Twelve months of receipts. One auditable bundle.

Week 1

Connect Gmail + your primary bank. Lossless parses last 12 months of receipts and statements into typed records — every line carries a source pointer back to the original PDF or email.

Week 2

1099-MISC, 1099-NEC, 1099-DIV, K-1s, mortgage interest statements auto-classified. Charitable contributions extracted from confirmation emails. Health-care deductions matched to charges.

Week 3

Vehicle business-mileage reconstructed from Tesla telemetry + calendar. Home-office square-footage applied to utilities. Sub-S distributions classified.

Week 4

Single export to your CPA: PDF binder per schedule (A, C, D, E), CSV per category, every row linked back to its sealed source record. Your CPA opens it once and works the return.

The deliverable

A single export your CPA doesn't ask follow-up questions about.

Schedule A · Schedule C · Schedule D · Schedule E · Schedule SE — each one as a printable PDF with line-by-line citations back to the source record (a Gmail receipt, a Plaid charge, a Tesla trip, a 1099 PDF). The CSV underneath drops straight into TurboTax, Drake, Lacerte, ProSeries, or your CPA's pro tool of choice.

ROI for a typical household with 1099 income + a rental: ~14 hours recovered each January (vs. the manual receipt-shoebox baseline)1, plus the CPA reads the bundle in one sitting instead of three back-and-forth emails.

1 Assumes ~120 itemized deductions + ~80 business expenses + ~50 rental line items, ~4 minutes manual categorization each. Adjust to your situation; the export is the export either way.
