Challenges Accounting Businesses Face

Client document collection that involves chasing PDFs, photos of receipts, and missing W-2s

Recurring engagement tracking across hundreds of clients with different fiscal years and deadlines

Client communication that lives in individual accountant email inboxes instead of the firm

Scope creep on advisory engagements where time spent far exceeds the quoted fee
