What EAs tell us

The recurring blockers in one- and two-person firms

Tax season compresses deadlines. Manual salary research and writeups become a bottleneck when every hour matters.

Owner-clients want lower wages. You need a clear, defensible range and language that supports your recommendation.

When questions come later, recreating assumptions is painful. Documentation should exist before an IRS letter arrives.

Built to support seasonal volume and year-round advisory conversations

Benchmark owner duties against BLS wage data with geography and role context, then present a range you can explain.

Generate a clean PDF with assumptions, methodology, and rationale to support your file and client communication.

Replace manual spreadsheets and one-off templates so you can keep momentum across a high-volume S-corp client list.

Use reasonable compensation as a recurring advisory deliverable, not just a tax-season scramble item.

Tax season focus now, advisory expansion outside peak season

During tax season

Create consistent salary analyses quickly so returns keep moving and open items do not pile up.

Post season

Use comp reviews to open planning conversations with S-corp owners around wages, distributions, and risk.

Year-round

Keep clear support in the file with a repeatable methodology and documented assumptions each year.

No subscriptions. Per-report pricing. Audit-ready output.
