In the rapidly evolving landscape of tax and accounting, artificial intelligence has emerged as more than just a buzzword–it’s becoming an essential component of modern practice management.

From automating routine tasks to enhancing client service delivery, AI tools are reshaping how professionals approach their work. Many firms are wondering where they stand in their AI journey. Some firms are pioneering new applications that use machine learning to predict clients’ needs or identify audit anomalies, before they become a problem. Others are just taking their first tentative steps and automating data entry or document processing. And many find themselves somewhere in between, having adopted certain technologies while still evaluating others.

What’s important to recognize is that there’s no single “right” place to be. The best AI strategy will depend on the size, client base and growth goals of your firm. However, understanding your current position can provide invaluable insights into your next strategic moves.
