Use cases

Transform your tax processes with CoCounsel Tax

Fast, defensible answers for tax research

Find the controlling code, regulations, and guidance with citations you can trace — all in the time it used to take just to get started.

Pin down the controlling authority

Ask a question in plain language and surface the relevant code sections, regulations, rulings, and guidance, each with a citation back to Checkpoint and primary sources. Stop hunting across tabs for the section you half-remember.

Stay current on what changed

Get up to speed on energy-related tax incentives like §179D and §45L or new accounting standards like IFRS 18 without digging through lengthy updates. Authoritative citations are included to validate exactly what applies.

Resolve technical questions with confidence

Work through complex issues, such as passive activity limits, the at-risk basis, and multistate scenarios. Then, see the source behind every answer, so you can stand behind your conclusions during review or client delivery.

Turn documents into answers

Upload a return, a K-1, or a client file and ask questions directly to help you understand the file without reading every page line by line.

Interrogate a return, not just read it

Upload tax return documents and supporting schedules to identify key items, carryforwards, limitations, and areas that may require review.

Analyze partnership and S corp details

Analyze returns — including K-1s, capital account information, distributions, and supporting workpapers — to identify inconsistencies or areas requiring follow-up.

Ramp up on unfamiliar work fast

Take over a client mid-engagement or review a prior-year return you didn't prepare by uploading documents and asking to summarize what was claimed, what was carried forward, and what appears unusual — so you can move forward with confidence.

Build confidence in your tax position before advising

Explore options, test assumptions, and validate your reasoning against an authoritative source before you commit to a position.

Identify tax savings strategies

Compare planning paths in order to evaluate entity structures, S corporation elections, or transaction approaches side by side — with the authority supporting each path. Identify trade-offs, assumptions, and issues to resolve before presenting a recommendation to the client.

Pressure test strategies and structures

Stress-test a position by working through complex areas such as cost segregation, research and development (R&D) credits, succession structures, and transaction planning. This capability allows you to identify gaps, missing authority, contrary considerations, or stronger alternatives.

Strengthen positions before you present

Bring your complex questions involving multistate issues, basis, estate planning, or entity structuring, and test your conclusions against authoritative content before finalizing your position.
