About CPA Pilot

Built for Tax Professionals,
by Tax Professionals

CPA Pilot is not a generic AI tool. It's a purpose-built AI workspace designed around how CPAs, EAs, and tax firms actually work.

Our Story

Why CPA Pilot Exists

Tax professionals face a problem that never gets simpler. Returns get more complex every year. Client questions require research that takes hours. Reviews need to catch what could become a penalty. And after filing season ends, there's a full calendar of advisory work, IRS notices, entity decisions, and planning conversations.

Generic AI tools promised to help — but they require constant prompting, produce inconsistent output, and don't understand the structure of a 1040, a workpaper, or a client organizer. You'd spend more time correcting the AI than working the issue.

CPA Pilot was built to solve this differently. Instead of a general-purpose AI that CPAs have to work around, we built a set of specific workflows — return review, research, planning, client communication, projections — and made each one as good as it could be for the actual task a CPA needs to complete.

Hours saved per week

Tax professionals report saving 3–8 hours per week on research, review, and client communication tasks.

🎯

Purpose-built for tax work

Every workflow in CPA Pilot was designed around a real tax professional task — not a generic text generation prompt.

🔒

Client data stays private

Your client data is never used to train AI models. Enterprise-grade security is standard, not an add-on.

Our Difference

Why CPA Pilot is Not Generic AI

Four pillars that separate purpose-built from general-purpose.

🧠

Tax-Trained Workflows

Each CPA Pilot workflow was designed around the real structure of tax work — not generic text generation. The return review workflow understands what to look for. The research workflow knows how to structure an answer a CPA can act on.

⚖️

CPA Judgment at Center

CPA Pilot is a tool that supports professional judgment — it doesn't replace it. Every output is a starting point for the licensed professional, not a final answer. The CPA stays in control. The AI handles the structured work.

📋

Professional Responsibility Aware

CPA Pilot is built with awareness of CPA professional standards and AICPA guidance. It doesn't make binding determinations. It supports your analysis — and reminds you that professional review is always required.

🔐

Secure and Private

Client data is encrypted in transit and at rest. We do not train models on your data. Security is a first-class requirement — not an enterprise upgrade. Enterprise agreements, compliance documentation, and SSO are available.

Product Philosophy

Our Product Philosophy

Three principles that guide every CPA Pilot feature decision.

Workflow Automation, Not Replacement

CPA Pilot automates the structured, repeatable parts of tax work — generating summaries, drafting replies, formatting research. It doesn't make professional judgments. That's your job. We just make it faster to get there.

🎯

CPA Judgment First

Every CPA Pilot output is a professional starting point. We design our outputs to be reviewed, refined, and signed off by you — the licensed professional. CPA Pilot amplifies your expertise; it doesn't attempt to replace it.

🔧

Built for the Real Workflow

CPA Pilot is not a demo product. It handles the real, messy complexity of tax work — multi-state returns, S-Corp basis issues, IRC section lookups, and client questions that don't have simple answers. Built for the whole year, not just April.

Security & Compliance

Security and Professional Responsibility

Built with the requirements of licensed tax professionals in mind from day one.

🛡️

SOC 2 Aligned

CPA Pilot is built following SOC 2 security principles. Enterprise security documentation available on request.

🔒

Data Encryption

All data encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest (AES-256). Client documents are handled with enterprise-grade security.

🚫

No Training on Your Data

Your client data is never used to train AI models. Ever. Your firm's data is yours — not a training resource.

📜

AICPA Standards Aware

CPA Pilot is designed with awareness of CPA professional responsibility standards. Outputs are clearly framed as AI-assisted drafts requiring professional review.
