Here are just a few ways Intuit Assist is making tax prep even easier and faster for you:

• Generative AI-powered financial assistant that will get to know you based on your docs. When you upload your tax data and tax documents, Intuit Assist will use GenAI-powered document understanding to read and interpret your information and create a personalized checklist so TurboTax knows what documents and forms you need. It enables TurboTax and human tax experts to leverage the power of AI to proactively provide fast answers, personalized insights, and recommendations.  
• Even smarter, easier, faster tax preparation. Intuit Assist will help simplify and streamline the tax preparation experience by enabling on-the-spot checks for accuracy and completeness, personalized answers, and a gateway to a tax expert for advice. For instance, Intuit Assist will help surface and resolve missed information while you work. Based on your tax profile, Intuit Assist will provide personalized answers. If you’re stuck in your return, it will match you to a human expert who can take additional care in explaining your tax implications and how to get the best tax outcome, whether you’re a bilingual self-employed tax filer, a day trader, or you have multiple streams of income.
• Confidence in tax outcomes and insights to help maximize next year’s outcome. Intuit Assist will get to know your individual financial situation and will use the power of GenAI to proactively surface deductions, credits, and explanations, giving you complete confidence in your tax outcome. Intuit Assist will also help you maximize your refund or lower your balance due for the next tax year by proactively providing insights and ways to improve your tax situation before you start next year’s tax return.

Whether you want to do your taxes yourself or hand them over to a TurboTax Live tax expert to complete them for you, Intuit Assist will help create the next chapter in tax prep. It enhances TurboTax every step of the way, so you can file with complete confidence even easier and faster than before, all while ensuring you receive your maximum refund, guaranteed.
