FOR ACCOUNTING FIRMS

Tax season, without the phone siege.

Your AI assistant absorbs the July–October call surge, books returns and BAS appointments, chases missing documents politely and persistently, and answers deadline questions — while your accountants actually account.

The firm reality

The July phone siege
Tax season triples call volume for four months. Hiring seasonal reception is expensive; missing calls is worse.
Document chasing purgatory
Every return waits on a client's missing statement — and chasing them politely consumes your admin team.
Deadline panic calls
'When's my BAS due?' 'Have you lodged mine?' — the same ten questions, hundreds of times.
Low-value walk-in enquiries
Callers price-shopping simple returns tie up the phone your business clients need.
EXAMPLE CONVERSATION

Missing documents, chased without the awkwardness.

The agent makes friendly outbound calls for outstanding documents, walks clients through the upload portal on the spot, and updates your workflow the moment files land.

AVA — AI PRACTICE ASSISTANT
Hi Maria, it's Ava calling from Ledger & Lane about your tax return — nothing's wrong! We're just missing your private health statement and one PAYG summary to finish everything up.
CLIENT
Oh right, sorry — I keep meaning to send those. The health fund one is in my email somewhere.
AVA — AI PRACTICE ASSISTANT
No stress, everyone's in the same boat this time of year. I can text you a secure upload link right now — if you find that email, you can forward the attachment straight in. Takes about a minute.
CLIENT
Okay, sending the health one now… done. I'll dig out the PAYG tonight.
AVA — AI PRACTICE ASSISTANT
The health statement's come through perfectly. I'll pop a reminder for the PAYG on Friday if it hasn't landed — and the moment it does, David can finalise your return within two business days.
