Pass 'quick question' client emails to staff with an AI tax tool, then have a partner check the reply

who Samantha Bowling, managing partner of GWCPA, a firm of under 20 people near Washington, D.C.

What it does

Staff research the question in Blue J, draft the reply, and the partner verifies it. The firm also built a custom ChatGPT on its SOPs so staff can ask how anything is done.

The problem

Client 'quick question' emails all landed on partners because only they could answer them.

What happened

As reported by the Journal of Accountancy podcast: partners save writing time and verify rather than draft. The SOP bot cut internal emails about things like holidays and timesheets.
