Run your tax practice from one place

Clients, documents, payments, and ATO compliance — unified in a single platform with AI that never misses a rule change.

Tax firms run on duct tape

The average small practice uses 4–6 disconnected tools per client engagement. The result is wasted hours, anxious staff, and risk hiding in every handoff.

Scattered client data

Emails, spreadsheets, cloud drives, legacy software — nothing connects. Staff piece it together manually every time.

Hours lost to chasing

Individual returns take ~4 hours. Partnerships take 8+. Most of that is gathering and verifying — not advising.

😓

Constant compliance anxiety

ATO rules change regularly. Staff carry the mental burden of staying current across every regulation and edge case.

📄

Clients in the dark

Documents go into a void. No visibility, no status updates, no self-service. Friction on both sides.

One system. Every workflow.

ClearVault replaces the patchwork with a single platform built for Australian tax and accounting firms.

01

Practice Management

Accounts, clients, engagements, and payments in one dashboard. No more switching between tools.

02

Client Portal

Clients send documents, answer questions, and track progress through the same system your team uses.

03

AI Tax Intelligence

New information is verified against current ATO rules instantly. Gaps are flagged. Next steps are clear.

Always current. Always thorough. Never tired.

ClearVault's model is purpose-built on ATO taxation rules — and it evolves as regulations do.

Never out of date

The model tracks ATO rule changes continuously. When legislation updates, your system updates. No lag, no gaps.

Every rule, every time

Humans can't hold every regulation in working memory. ClearVault checks every applicable rule on every engagement, with zero fatigue.

Mental security for your staff

The constant anxiety of "did I miss something?" goes away. Staff trust the system to catch gaps, so they focus on advising — not second-guessing.

Practical security for your firm

Fewer missed deductions. Fewer incomplete filings. Every engagement follows a consistent, audit-ready process — reducing firm risk.

Where the hours actually go

Most of a tax professional's time isn't spent advising — it's spent gathering, verifying, and chasing. These are the hours ClearVault gives back.

Large, growing, and underserved

Australia's accounting industry is a $33B market with nearly 64,000 registered tax practitioners. The small-to-mid tier — firms with 2–15 staff — is where pain is greatest and existing tools are weakest.

Current AI tools in accounting have less than 53% user satisfaction (Agile MI, 2025). There's a massive gap for a purpose-built, ATO-native AI solution designed for the firms that need it most.
