What is Keepertax?

Keepertax is an accounting homework help tool. Keeper's AI accountant answers US individual tax questions in seconds, with periodic grading by CPAs, EAs and JDs and a public archive of reviewed Q&A. Version 2.0 is now retired in favor of the current model inside a free Keeper account.

Keepertax's Ask an AI Accountant is a question and answer tool built by Keeper for US individual tax topics. A user types a tax question into a single input window and receives a written response in roughly 10 to 40 seconds. The underlying model was fine tuned on US tax law, with version 2.0 trained on 2024 tax updates and backed by embeddings that cover federal tax code, state tax codes and a decade of IRS announcements. A chain of reasoning retrieval layer selects the most relevant embeddings for each question before an answer is drafted. The tool is aimed at individuals working through personal filing questions: self employed filers, freelancers, Airbnb hosts with W2 jobs, people untangling tricky household situations. Answers appear under the question box and are periodically reviewed by credentialed tax professionals, including CPAs, Enrolled Agents and JDs. Reviewed questions are published on their own pages with a green check for a correct grade or a red stop icon for an incorrect one, plus the reviewer's comments. On the published sample, the AI scored 96% accuracy against 94% for the human reviewers, and version 2 scored 88% on a sample of Part 1 EA exam questions. Keeper is candid about where the system falls short. City and state tax intricacies are only partly embedded. Multi step math, such as computing individual income tax for a high bracket filer, is a known weak point tied to LLM arithmetic limits. The model can also be overly conservative because it leans on the literal tax code. Only English language questions on US individual tax get official grading, and ambiguous or contentious questions are skipped in review. The page itself notes this version is no longer updated and points users to a free Keeper account for the current model. It is an educational Q&A layer, not a filing service or a substitute for paid advice.
