Software for tax professionals, in English and Spanish. Tax software and e-file launching for the 2027 season.

Documents in.Read by private AI.Clients hear back.

W-2s, 1099s and IDs arrive by WhatsApp, text and email. Private AI reads each one into the right client file, and every client hears back in English or Spanish before they call to ask.

Tax software launching for the 2027 season: the 1040 will be built on the form and e-filed by XyloDocs, which is accepted by the IRS as both Software Developer and Transmitter. That makes one place for the federal 1040, with no second tax program and no third-party transmitter.

Running in production at Alianza Tax, a 1,000+ client bilingual practice in Colorado.

Illustration: a client sends a photo of a W-2 over WhatsApp in Spanish, private AI reads it into her 2026 file next to the firm's Form 1040, 1041 and 1065 paperwork, and she gets a reply in Spanish saying only the 1099-INT is still missing.

Sample client file with made-up details. Today XyloDocs organizes the documents and the conversation and your tax software files the return; for the 2027 season the 1040 will be built and e-filed here too.

What is XyloDocs?

XyloDocs is software for tax professionals — an AI client communication platform for tax firms, CPAs, and tax preparers. It automates bilingual (English/Spanish) phone calls and SMS, proactive tax-status updates, and multi-channel document intake over WhatsApp, SMS, and email, with a tax client portal and tax document management so teams spend less time on admin and more time on billable work. The communication platform is available now on its own. XyloDocs is an IRS Authorized e-file Provider, accepted by the IRS as both Software Developer and Transmitter (EFIN and ETINs issued); its own tax software with direct 1040 e-filing, plus Colorado (state approval pending), is launching for the 2027 season — not available yet.

Tax software for CPA firms that pays for itself

For Colorado firms, optional tax software rides on top of the communication platform you run all year. You pay the season fee up front. At 100 funded refund transfers — not returns filed — the full fee is refunded, so it nets to zero. Not a discount. Not free. Not available today.

AFTER — WITH XYLODOCS

Auto-translates everything. Every client. Every channel. Automatically.

Where the time actually goes

Alianza Tax runs more than 1,000 bilingual clients. Before XyloDocs, roughly 20 hours a week disappeared into two things: telling clients where their return stood, and chasing the documents that had not arrived yet.

“Where’s my return?”

Clients now get status updates automatically, in English or Spanish, before they think to call. The AI voice agent answers the ones who still prefer to phone.

Chasing documents

Clients send photos over WhatsApp or text. XyloDocs reads them, files them to the right client and tax year, and keeps a running list of what is still missing.

Saying it twice

Every message, update, and call runs in the client’s language automatically. Write once in English; the client reads it in Spanish and replies in Spanish.

Run the numbers for your practice

Your practice is not Alianza. The calculator uses your client count, your staff, and your hourly rate, and every assumption behind it is visible and editable.

From the practice this was built in

"We were losing about 20 hours a week to status calls and chasing documents. That work is largely automated now, and my clients hear from us in the language they actually speak."

When a client calls about an IRS letter: what to capture first

The first call about an IRS letter decides how much time you have to respond. What to capture (the notice number, the date, what it says), why it is urgent, and what a phone agent must not say.

Frequently asked questions

What is XyloDocs?

XyloDocs is software for tax professionals. Today it is the AI client communication platform for tax firms and CPAs: bilingual (English/Spanish) phone calls and SMS, proactive tax-status updates, and multi-channel document intake (WhatsApp, SMS, email) read by private AI into a tax client portal. For the 2027 season it adds its own tax software with direct IRS e-file; XyloDocs is accepted by the IRS as both Software Developer and Transmitter.

Does XyloDocs translate English and Spanish in real time?

Yes. XyloDocs auto-translates voice calls, SMS, and WhatsApp messages between English and Spanish so monolingual preparers can serve Spanish-speaking clients without hiring dedicated bilingual staff for every conversation.

How much does XyloDocs cost?

The communication platform is $49/month (dashboard, one number, unlimited free client accounts, storage, and CRM), plus $9/month per additional team seat. SMS, WhatsApp, and AI calling are metered usage drawn from a prepaid balance, so you only pay for what you use. Optional tax software launches for the 2027 season and is not available today. See the pricing page for current usage rates.

Does XyloDocs include tax software?

Not today. The AI client communication platform is a complete product on its own. Optional tax software is an add-on launching for the 2027 season. You pay the season fee up front ($799 Individual / 1040 or $1,099 Individual + Business); at 100 funded refund transfers — not returns filed — the full fee is refunded, so it nets to zero. It is not free. If a firm falls short, they keep professional tax software at a fair price. Business returns launching after IRS testing completes (pending, 2027).

Do I need separate tax software or a transmitter with XyloDocs?

Today, yes. The communication platform organizes the documents and the conversation and hands a clean package to Drake, Lacerte or ProConnect, which prepare and transmit the return, so you can file any state with your existing software. For the 2027 season XyloDocs adds its own tax software and e-file: XyloDocs is accepted by the IRS as both Software Developer and Transmitter, so a federal 1040 will need no second tax program and no third-party transmitter. Business and multi-state returns stay on your current engine for now.

Is XyloDocs tax software for tax preparers and CPA firms?

XyloDocs is software for tax professionals, but it is not a tax engine today. Tax preparers, EAs, and CPAs use it as the AI client communication layer — calling, SMS, WhatsApp, a tax client portal, and tax document management — alongside Drake, Lacerte, ProConnect, or another engine. Its own tax software, with XyloDocs as both software developer and transmitter, launches for the 2027 season.

How much time can a firm save with XyloDocs?

Firms use XyloDocs to reclaim hours spent on status calls, document chase, and language barriers. Alianza Tax, a 1,000+ client bilingual practice, previously spent roughly 20 hours a week on status calls and chasing documents; individual practices can estimate their own savings on the ROI calculator.
