The future of tax advisory — AI-enhanced, digital, efficient, trustworthy.
🇨🇭 tax return · individuals
What disappears here: hunting for documents in your inbox, retyping figures, chasing three times. What remains: an orderly case — 31 documents exactly where they are needed, and 87 questions your clients answer themselves.
Takes just about 15 minutes — estimated from the number of questions, not measured.
You fill in the real workflow at the demo firm Muster Treuhand AG — no account, no sign-in. Your entries stay on your device until you submit them.
What you get out of it
Less handwork, more that can be checked.
- The AI fills in first
- The AI pre-fills 10 fields from your documents — you review instead of typing.
- Your clients answer for themselves
- Your clients answer 87 questions inside the workflow — not in an e-mail thread with you.
- Documents arrive in order
- The workflow collects 31 documents — each one where it is needed.
