What will AGI do for Unbillable Tax Data Extraction?
Tax preparation firms absorb the cost of manually transcribing client financial documents into tax software because clients refuse to pay hourly rates for data entry. Accountants and paraprofessionals spend hours hunting through hundreds of pages of unstandardized brokerage statements, K-1s, and scanned receipts to locate specific numeric fields. This manual transcription directly reduces the firm's realization rate on fixed-fee and capped engagements.
