This page is half a comparison, on purpose. It states the job a firm hires accounting practice management to do, and what Accute does against that job. It quotes no TaxDome pricing and describes no TaxDome features, because we have not run their software through a firm season and would be guessing in public if we did.
Accounting practice management
Run onboarding, document requests, e-signature, messaging and billing through one place the client actually logs into, instead of four links and a mail thread.
That is the job. A firm shortlisting TaxDome is shopping for it, and so is a firm shortlisting Accute. Everything below is what Accute does about it, and how you can check each answer rather than take it.
Three, answered in full, in the words we would use to a partner on a call.
Accute is the alternative we can speak for. Accute keeps the whole client relationship behind a single portal: document requests, secure messaging, e-signature and invoices all hang off the engagement they belong to, so an outstanding item reads as blocked work rather than an unanswered email. Signatures are PKI-backed, RSA-SHA256 over a SHA-256 content hash, so what was signed and what it was signed over both stay on the record. Our own effort went into the layer above the portal: agents that execute the work the portal collects rather than only filing it.
It depends on whether the firm expects to add services. Accute is one product inside the FinACEverse suite, and the suite shares one identity, one client portal and one audit trail. A firm that later adds tax filing, audit automation or a bookkeeping close is not onboarding a second vendor, reconciling a second client list, or asking its clients to learn a second login.
No. We have not run TaxDome through a firm season, so we publish no pricing for it and make no claims about its features. This page states the job firms hire accounting practice management to do and what Accute does against that job, which is the only half we can be held to. For the other half, read what TaxDome publishes itself.
Every line here describes a mechanism that exists in the product today, stated precisely enough to be wrong. Hold us to each one in a trial.
Portal access is issued to a named client contact from the firm's own email template, so the mail that opens the portal reads as the firm's, not as a system notice.
A request carries an owner, a due date, a priority and a status, and each document inside it carries its own status, so a half-answered request reads as half answered rather than as open.
The document is hashed with SHA-256 and that hash is signed RSA-SHA256 under the firm's own key pair. Verification re-checks the signature against the stored public key instead of trusting a flag that says signed.
Threads are records inside the firm's own tenant, attached to the client they concern, rather than a mail thread living outside the system that holds the work.
Hours carry a rate, a billable flag, an invoiced flag and the invoice they landed on, and an invoice can name the work it bills, so the seam from finished work to money is traceable from either end.
Questions decide this category. Put every one of them to TaxDome, to Accute, and to anything else on your shortlist, and buy whichever answers them on a screen rather than in a sales deck.
The rules every page in this family is written under, printed here because you may never see the index.
Plans change, currencies differ and term discounts move the number. A price we captured once and never re-checked would be presented as current while being wrong, so we publish none. Every vendor below publishes its own pricing, and that page is the only one worth reading.
We have not run their software through a firm season, so we are not in a position to say what it does or does not do. Anyone who tells you otherwise about a product they have not used is guessing in public.
What each entry states is the job a firm hires the category to do, and what Accute does against that job. That half is ours, it is testable in a trial, and you should hold us to it.
So: no TaxDome pricing on this page, and nothing about what TaxDome does or does not do. TaxDome publishes both, and that is the page worth reading for their half.
Same contract, same shape, a different product on the other side of it.
Run one real engagement through Accute, on your own client list, and hold every answer on this page against what you see. We will set that up with you rather than hand you a trial and hope.
Accounts and plans live in the FinACEverse gateway, so nothing on this page asks you for a card.
