The Problem

Tracking nexus across 30+ states for Small Business Tax clients and filing the right return on the right cadence is a full-time job — and one missed Wayfair threshold triggers back-taxes and penalties.

What We Build in SmartVault

AI monitors nexus thresholds, pulls transaction data from UltraTax CS, prepares state-by-state returns, and logs filings with evidence — nexus risk is tracked in real time, not discovered at audit. Purpose-built for teams running SmartVault — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

3

Human-in-the-loop handoff

Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in SmartVault with enough context to act — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
