Open a stage to separate client waits from staff work.

3 days waitingClient information

The request needs a supporting document and an answer to one question. The account owner groups them into one clear request.

Next owner: Account owner, then the client contact
What could change: Elapsed waiting time. Sending a clearer request does not itself remove preparation hours.

6 hours of workPrepare the review pack

The preparer has the inputs. A consistent pack standard can reduce repeated searching and clarification.

Next owner: Preparer
What to measure: Preparation effort and work returned by the reviewer. Keep these separate from time waiting on a client.

2 hours of workProfessional review

The pack reaches the reviewer with unresolved items named. Accounting judgments and professional signoff stay with the qualified person.

Next owner: Reviewer
What to measure: Time in the review queue, review effort and avoidable rework as separate figures.

Try an assumed two-hour reduction in preparation work

Eight staff hours in this example.

Six preparation hours plus two review hours. The three-day client wait sits outside that effort total.

Six staff hours under that assumption.

Four preparation hours plus two review hours. Client waiting time has not changed.

What would you do with the two hours?

Reduce overtime, absorb existing workload or schedule additional work. The practice needs a real use for the released capacity.

The two-hour change is a sample assumption. Any real saving needs a measured baseline and a use.

Client-accounting close workflow

A baseline separating client waiting time, preparation effort and reviewer rework.
A close template for one recurring service tier and a defined client group.
Grouped client requests with clear ownership for unresolved information.
A review-pack standard and signoff path in your existing practice tools.
A capacity review that distinguishes available staff time from realized financial benefit.

Pricing

Start with the published US$7,500 audit

The published two-week AI Opportunity Audit (US$7,500 fixed) inventories the workflow, puts numbers on what it costs you today and returns a 90-day roadmap. It is credited toward the build if you proceed. A pilot build of one workflow on your data is published at US$25,000 to US$60,000 fixed, with the conditions for stopping the pilot agreed in writing before we start. The audit covers the client group, service variation and practice tools involved. Software licenses, ledger cleanup and additional client groups are separate.

Preparing your close review

Separate the sources of delay
Review how work waits on clients, preparers and reviewers before deciding whether the problem needs process changes or configuration.
Set up one service tier
Agree the request, preparation and review standards, then configure a limited client group in your existing practice tools.
Measure a comparable close
Track workload and rework through a full cycle. Professional review stays with your firm, and unused capacity remains visible.

Relevant work

Automation we run on ourselves

50+ hours a week

Our own agency runs on agents we built: daily industry scanning and a weekly Meta ads review that creates owned tasks, saving the team 50+ hours a week. The published case shows how we build, review and keep improving them.

Read how we automate our own work

Our own marketing operation, not an accounting practice. It shows how we build and review workflow agents, not a result in your industry.

Monthly-close questions

Why start with a paid audit?

Because the value depends on your data, systems and volume, and none of that is visible from a form. The two-week audit puts real numbers on the workflow before anyone commits to a build, and its fee is credited if you proceed.

Do we need another close dashboard?

Not necessarily. We first examine the workflows and close features already available in your practice tools. A useful scope may be configuration, service standardization and staff training. Additional integration is considered only for a verified gap.

Will you perform the accounting work?

The scope is the operating process around your firm's work. Your authorized staff make accounting judgments, resolve ledger issues and sign off the close. Client data access is limited to the agreed purpose.

How do you value time that the team gets back?

We distinguish capacity from cash savings. Avoided overtime or additional work actually sold and delivered can have financial value. Time that remains unused should not be presented as new revenue or reduced payroll.
