HOUSTON, TX, UNITED STATES, July 23, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- SmartVault, the trusted leader in document management and client collaboration software for accounting professionals, today announced the upcoming release of SmartRequestAITM, a powerful new tool designed to transform the way firms collect client information and documents during tax season.
Launching later this year to enable firms
A self-contained, secure tax prep ecosystem , SmartRequestAI strengthens SmartVault’s mission to automate document workflows for firms at every stage of the tax prep process. From client intake to delivery to compliant document archiving — all without the need for additional third-party software.
“Harnessing the power of AI to automate the client intake process delivers massive value to our customers,” said Dania Buchanan, SmartVault President. “And the ability to deliver this feature within SmartVault’s secure infrastructure means we not only increase efficiency, but we reduce firm risk by limiting the number of third-party apps with access to sensitive client data — a key consideration to firms as they continue to build out their tech stack.”
Key Capabilities:
• AI powered questionnaire and document request list unique to each client
• Bulk creation of client requests to save time
• Firm friendly dashboard to monitor status
• Organized workpaper generated from completed request, ready for import to your tax software
• SOC 2 Type 2 Compliant solution to help you meet industry requirements around the protection of client data
Beating the Competition: Unlike standalone solutions in market today, SmartRequestAI is built directly into the SmartVault platform and leverages prior year returns stored in SmartVault, minimizing risk to the firm of exposing client tax information to additional third-party systems. Firms can fully automate the client intake process, communication, review, delivery and archive workflow all in one secure platform.
Why It Matters
• Reduces manual admin and back-and-forth emails
• Saves up to 60-90 minutes per return
• Helps firms scale during peak season without increasing headcount
• Minimizes risk and centralizes client data in a secure environment
• Streamlines the client experience with a secure, modern interface that simplifies document collection and communication
• Eliminates hassle with SmartScan, a built-in scanner that lets clients snap and upload clear, professional PDFs directly from their phone or tablet
“SmartRequestAI represents the kind of tech I’m always looking for, tools that streamline the process without sacrificing client experience,” said Nick Boscia, The Balanced CPA, Managing Partner at Boscia & Boscia PC, and a SmartVault Customer Advisory Council member. By automating document requests and eliminating unnecessary follow-up, we’re not just saving time, we’re creating space for deeper work, better client relationships, and a healthier tax season. That’s the kind of efficiency The Balanced CPA stands for.”
SmartRequestAI will be available to all SmartVault customers later this year, enabling firms to reap tangible and meaningful benefits this tax season.
