Course Description

Join SafeSend’s Andrew Hatfield, co-founder and Chief Growth Officer, as he discusses AI's ability to make getting Tax Ready easier for firms and clients. New innovation leveraging AI will streamline the source document gathering process and make features such as automatically generated Document Request Lists (DRL), automatic identification and labeling of client uploaded documents, and dynamic custom questionnaires available and easy to use.

Join SafeSend as we share ways to help your firm and your clients get tax ready and solve pain points around the client information gathering process.
