What bots could verify
- • Clear corporate identity disclosing named founders, Big Four experience, a Chicago address, and Y Combinator affiliation.
- • Documented product milestone claiming passage of IRS Assurance Testing for Form 1040 individual returns across three provider roles.
- • Transparent terms clarifying that the public interactive demo uses fictitious data and does not perform live calculations.
What weakens trust
- • No public pricing transparency; access requires waitlists or direct sales outreach with no disclosed subscription or per-return fees.
- • Complete absence of independent customer evidence, such as verified reviews on G2 or Capterra, CPA testimonials, or case studies.
- • Unfinished independent security auditing, as the company is only in the process of acquiring SOC 2 Type II certification.
