I pay my contractors via wire, as in I don't use a payroll system, can I still use you?
Ibrahim
@sadokx yes you can! are you tracking those contractor payments in quickbooks or an accounting system? (even if not) ping me at ibrahim@neo.tax and would be happy to help!

How does this compare to MainStreet?
Ibrahim
@michaelxyoung great question! 1. one of our cofounders is a former IRS agent (1) building the product, (2) reviewing your credit, and (3) on staff to talk to the IRS, should they have any questions 2. our Write-up (your insurance policy) is the most robust, accurate and comprehensive in market 3. we have productized the flow to make it super easy β†’ takes 10 min 4. that also means that we are half the price of anyone else β†’ we only charge a 10% fee 5. and we spread that fee over 12 months and only start charging customers when their credit kicks in, so you're paying us using your savings and never out-of-pocket =] 6. finally, we have the highest assurance possible, capped off with a $1M guarantee

It would definitely be the killer in the payroll space!!
Lee Fuhr
?makers Is this something I would use in _addition_ to my accountant doing their normal tax prep work? Would I need to involve them in this? Sorry, this stuff makes my head feel cloudy.
Ibrahim
@lee_fuhr this stuff makes everyone's head cloudy! that's why we're solving it. yes this would be in addition to your accountant. you don't need to involve your accountant until the very end (they incorporate the r&d credit we generate into your tax return in <5 min), but many of our customers loop their accountants in earlier. and many accountants secretly use neo.tax on the backend to generate their startup clients' r&d credits.

Great tagline - congrats on the launch!

hello everyone! we are a small team founded by a Stanford PhD in ML automating an ex-IRS agent's brain, productized by an ex-Intuit PM. congress + IRS made the R&D Tax Credit to incentivize US innovation = startups can get 10% back on last year's payroll and contractors! we are bringing transparency to the (intentionally) complex tax code to make it accessible to everyone. about damn time, right? most CPAs don't know about this credit & the ones that do take 10 hrs! plus you're covered by best-in-class assurance: reverse-eng'd IRS audit techniques + ex-IRS agent + $1M guarantee finally, we care a ton about incentive alignment! so you pay us a small % of your credit, spread out over 12 months. and we don't begin charging you until you actually get $$$. thanks for coming to our ted talk =]
Leandro
@ibrahim1 Hi there! What have been the changes since this launched last year?
Ibrahim
@leandro8209 1. built API integrations for all payroll connections 2. baked in an IRS agents' intelligence and insights so it's like having them walk you through it 3. rebuilt payment so that it's truly incentive aligned with customers, spread out over 12 months and only begin charging customers when their credit kicks in 4. automated away many questions by gathering data from other online sources 5. rebuilt it entirely so it's faster, more performant, and more reliable 6. added many more payroll providers 7. it's more prettier
Leandro
@ibrahim1 Thanks for clarifying! All the best with your launch!
Ibrahim
@leandro8209 thanks!!!

After using the service for the first time this tax season, I STRONGLY RECOMMEND working with neo.tax!! Taxes might be the least fun portion of founding a company (sorry guys, it's true), but their process to capture the R&D tax credit is about as seemless and painless as you could ever make it. I'll see you guys for the next five years while we can still earn the credit. Worthy of mention, their support team was astoundingly good. When tax law isn't your thing, they stayed on the phone walking me through the process and went far beyond expectations to remedy. Poor guy I think was working late on a Friday. I'm truly in your debt!! Great job!
