AI for Accountants: Client Communication That Scales Your Practice

It's February 15th. Your inbox has 47 unread client emails. Half of them say some variation of "When will my return be done?" Another quarter are missing document reminders you've already sent twice. You're spending 3 hours a day on email instead of on actual returns—during the busiest season of the year.

The math is brutal: at 50 clients and 8 minutes per email, you're burning 6+ hours daily just on communication. Meanwhile, clients who feel ignored become difficult clients. The ones who are actually waiting on you for something important get buried in the pile of status checks.
