What if you could talk to your tax documents?



Tax professionals spend hours manually reviewing documents like K-1s, bouncing between systems and cross-referencing data. This slows down turnaround times, increases error risk, and drains staff capacity, especially during peak season. CCH Axcess Intelligence transforms document-heavy workflows by allowing users to chat directly with uploaded files or pull from CCH Axcess Document. It uses OCR and AI to extract key details, summarize content, and flag missing items, reducing manual review time by up to 90%, while maintaining accuracy. Backed by CCH® AnswerConnect, professionals can move from analysis to action in minutes, not hours.

More clients. Less stress. One smart solution.


With many CPAs nearing retirement and a growing demand for tax services, firms face a capacity crunch. Teams are stretched thin, and hiring alone won't solve the problem. CCH Axcess Intelligence acts as a time-back lever, helping firms handle more clients without increasing headcount. With an on-demand tax expert that can research, review, and resolve in real time, firms can automate routine tasks, surface insights instantly, and scale efficiently—without compromising work-life balance.

Secure AI for tax professionals


Unregulated use of generic AI tools introduces serious compliance risk. Employees often use AI without oversight, risking data exposure and inaccurate outputs that could lead to audit issues. CCH Axcess Intelligence is built for the enterprise governance. It operates within your firm's secure environment, with SOC compliance and encryption, audit trials, and zero model training on client data. Every recommendation is backed by authoritative CCH content, ensuring accuracy, security, and peace of mind.
