“It's probably already saved me 10 to 20 hours this week. Something that would take me two to three hours is going to take me 30 minutes.”

For firms of every size

Tax, client accounting, and everything in between.

Accounting AI as flexible as your practice.

Tax

Trial balance mapping

You: Upload the TB and prior-year mapping.

Basis: Maps client accounts to the firm's chart with tax return line references, flags new and unmapped accounts.

K-1 and document extraction at scale

You: Drop a hundred investment partnerships into Basis.

Basis: Aggregates the K-1s (footnotes included) and the passive/non-passive splits with citations.

Tax workpapers

You: Attach the source documents.

Basis: Maps book to tax and drafts workpapers for M-1 adjustments, fixed asset roll-forwards, and the tax trial balance. Every figure cited to its source.

Tax return QC

You: Upload the draft return and the supporting docs before it goes out the door.

Basis: Ties every number back to its source, builds the prior-year variance list, and flags exceptions with recommendations.

Client accounting services

Transaction coding in the GL

You: Connect the GL and tell Basis “code new transactions.”

Basis: Codes them against the client’s own history and chart of accounts, then stages everything for your review. Approve and it posts to the ledger.

Draft and post JEs from source documents

You: Drop in the payroll report, invoice, or bank statement.

Basis: Proposes the JEs with account, memo, and source docs linked — staged for your review before anything posts.

Run reconciliations

You: Connect the GL and attach the statements.

Basis: Flags unmatched detail as exceptions and proposes the JEs to fix them — ready for your review.

Reporting & deliverables

You: Connect the GL, add the budget and AR/AP aging, and tell Basis what you want to report on.

Basis: Builds the financial statements, explains significant variances, and produces a 13-week cash flow forecast—ready for your review.

Basis thinks and works like an accountant does.

General purpose AI doesn’t.
