The tool for accountants who want to get through tax season without chasing paperwork

Your clients get a document list made for them and send each one as a photo, straight into their file. You see what is missing, the deadlines and the late files at a glance, and your clients approve their file online before filing. Kitobiz is designed in Montréal for small businesses, including accounting firms.

Is tax season mostly chasing documents?

  • Slips arrive by email, by text and in an envelope, one at a time.
  • You follow up by hand with clients who haven’t sent everything.
  • You lose track of which file is waiting for the client’s approval.
  • The engagement letter sits in a drawer, unsigned.

From the document list to the notice of assessment

  1. 1

    The list goes out

    In January, each client gets their document list for their situation, with their personal link.

  2. 2

    Documents arrive

    The client sends each document as a photo or marks what does not apply. Something still missing? The reminder goes out on its own.

  3. 3

    The client approves

    You enter the result, the client reviews the summary and approves by typing their name.

  4. 4

    The file closes

    Filed, then notice of assessment received: a thank-you goes out with the button to leave a review.
