The roster

Fifty-seven specialists, one shared record.

Pivot is not one general-purpose assistant asked to do everything, and it is not a close-review tool with extras bolted on. It is a roster of narrow agents covering the firm's whole year — the close, yes, but also the schedules, the compliance calendar, the document chase, the portal, the diary and the advisory work — each scoped to one job, each reading the same ledger snapshot, each writing to the same approval queue. A firm switches on the ones it wants; the rest stay off. Today two are live, a few more are being built, and the rest are designed and sequenced. The labels below say which.

Module 01 · eleven agents

Close & review

  • Close review agent

    Live

    Runs the full month-end review on the client's own tax basis — reconciliations, balance-sheet tie-outs, variance work against prior periods, and a memo. Produces findings with the underlying transactions attached, proposed adjusting entries, how-to-fix steps, and the questions that need to go to the client. Findings it proposes go to a named reviewer, and once approved they pass to the write-back agent below.

  • Write-back & approval agent

    In build

    Carries an approved entry into the accounting system against the named person who approved it, dates and links reversing entries automatically, blocks closed periods and duplicates, then reads the entry back to verify it landed. It sits between close review and financial packaging: nothing is packaged until the approved entries have been written back and the adjusted numbers re-pulled.

  • Financial packaging agent

    Live

    Turns the closed, adjusted numbers into a client-ready financial package under the subscribing firm's own branding — compilation letter, statements, comparatives, and any open items disclosed rather than hidden. The compilation report itself needs a CPA to sign, so firms without one get a non-report variant of the package. It builds from the adjusted numbers after write-back is verified, never from the draft.

  • Peer review agent

    RoadmapCredentialed

    Reviews the firm's own completed work the way a peer reviewer would, ahead of the real one.

  • Bank feed agent

    Roadmap

    Categorizes bank transactions against the client's own history and prepares the reconciliation for review.

  • Catch-up & cleanup agent

    Roadmap

    Works through backlogged books in batches of a size a person can actually review, oldest period first.

  • Job costing agent

    Roadmap

    Crew and job costs for service and construction clients, tied back to the ledger.

  • Fraud & anomaly watch agent

    Roadmap

    Flags unusual transactions and patterns, with the evidence, for a person to look at. It never accuses and never acts.

  • Multi-entity consolidation agent

    Roadmap

    Combines related entities into one set of statements, with intercompany items eliminated and shown.

  • Review engagement support agent

    RoadmapCredentialed

    Supports review-level work. The review report itself is signed by a CPA.

  • Audit & workpaper support agent

    RoadmapCredentialed

    Organizes workpapers and supporting documents. CPA only.

Module 02 · three agents

Schedules

  • Fixed asset & depreciation agent

    In build

    Owns the depreciation schedule as its engine. Scans Repairs & Maintenance and Office Supplies each period for spend that looks capital in nature, asks the client directly whether anything was bought, sold or disposed of, flags Section 179 and bonus elections for confirmation, and extends to intangible amortization, prepaids and deferred revenue.

  • Loan & amortization agent

    In build

    Builds the schedule from the note itself, solving the rate when it is not stated. Catches the whole payment booked to an expense account, matches payee names against known finance companies, splits interest from principal, applies genuine extra principal to the balance, and asks before assuming a loan was paid off.

  • Lease accounting agent

    In build

    The full ASC 842 lifecycle — classification, initial ROU asset and liability measurement, the ongoing schedule, and monitoring for modifications, renewals and impairment. If lease accounting is on the books with no paperwork on file, it asks rather than guesses. Classification always goes to a person.

Module 03 · nine agents

Compliance

  • Sales tax & nexus agent

    In build

    Reads the firm's own filing tracker as source of truth for jurisdictions, frequency and due dates, ingests point-of-sale reports where the ledger alone will not do, reconciles the liability as part of the close rather than as a separate chore, and tracks economic nexus thresholds by state.

  • Payroll compliance agent

    Roadmap

    Deposit deadlines, worker classification, multi-state withholding, and the W-2 and 1099 calendar.

  • W-9 management agent

    In build

    Watches the ledger for vendors it has not seen before, requests the W-9 from the vendor directly rather than routing it through the client, and files the returned form to the portal.

  • Deadline & engagement tracking agent

    In build

    Every compliance date across every entity type in the book, held in one place, with the work backed up from the deadline rather than forward from whenever someone remembered.

  • Information returns agent

    Roadmap

    Prepares 1099 and W-2 reporting from the books and ties it to payroll at year end. A person approves; nothing is filed automatically.

  • Entity compliance agent

    Roadmap

    Tracks annual reports, registrations and renewals for each client entity.

  • Multi-state nexus agent

    RoadmapCredentialed

    Maps where a client has income tax filing obligations, for a signer to review.

  • IRS notices & representation agent

    RoadmapCredentialed

    Organizes a notice response for the authorized representative to review. Nothing is sent without that person.

  • Estimated tax agent

    RoadmapCredentialed

    Safe-harbor and estimated payment calculations, for a signer to approve.

Module 04 · six agents

Client & documents

  • Document intake & chase agent

    In build

    The real problem is not sorting what arrives, it is chasing what has not. Monthly statements go out on a fixed date, reminders repeat on a set cadence in the portal, then escalate to email, then to a named person at the firm. Event-driven chases are triggered by the fixed asset and loan agents when they spot a purchase or new financing.

  • Client onboarding agent

    In build

    Walks a subscribing firm's own client through setup as a conversation rather than a blank template, asking the questions the firm would have asked and stopping when it has what it needs.

  • Tax document checklist agent

    Roadmap

    Builds the expected-document list from the prior year's return, matches it against what has actually been uploaded, and chases the gap on a schedule.

  • Client questions agent

    Roadmap

    Drafts answers to routine client questions from the firm's own records. Staff review anything beyond routine.

  • News monitoring agent

    Roadmap

    Turns tax and regulatory news into short notes a reviewer can send to the right clients.

  • Switch-over importer

    Roadmap

    Brings a firm's clients and history over from its old tools, read-only, so the move does not start with re-keying.

Module 05 · nine agents

Firm operations

  • Calendar & scheduling agent

    In build

    Client bookings, internal blocks, deadlines and recurring work in one week view — and it schedules its own preparation time, extending a close block when the exception count comes back high.

  • Platform health agent

    In build

    Watches each firm's own tenant and tells that firm when something failed, rather than waiting for them to notice a review that never arrived.

  • Firm staff agent

    Roadmap

    Your own people rather than your clients. Onboarding and offboarding with the access record an auditor will ask for, your SOPs assigned in sequence and the training logged against the person, independence and conflict checks at hire, CPE and license renewal by jurisdiction, and coverage — who is out, what is due that week, and whether anyone is left to do it.

  • Quality management agent

    Roadmap

    The firm's system of quality management under AICPA SQMS No. 1 — risk assessment, responses, monitoring, remediation and the annual evaluation, documented as the year goes rather than reconstructed the week before an inspection. It feeds the peer review agent: quality management is the ongoing system, peer review is the periodic external check.

  • Inbox triage agent

    Roadmap

    Reads the firm's mail and turns it into action items and tasks instead of a second to-do list nobody maintains.

  • Time & billing agent

    Roadmap

    Ties recorded work to invoicing through the payment tools firms already use.

  • Client acceptance agent

    Roadmap

    Walks a prospective client through the firm's acceptance checks before an engagement starts.

  • Proposals & engagement letters agent

    Roadmap

    Drafts proposals and engagement letters from the firm's own templates for a partner to approve.

  • Records retention agent

    Roadmap

    Applies the firm's retention schedule by record type and queues anything due for disposal for a person to approve.

Module 06 · fifteen agents

Advisory & tax

  • Forecasting & analysis agent

    Roadmap

    A rolling thirteen-week cash forecast built from receivable and payable aging, payroll cadence, the loan schedules the platform already holds and the filing calendar — plus plain-language variance commentary for the monthly package, benchmarking across the book, and receivable and covenant trends. The other advisory agents read this one rather than each inventing their own projection.

  • Tax planning agent

    RoadmapCredentialed

    One planning conversation with several engines: reasonable compensation, entity structure and the S-corporation election, retirement plan choice and the QBI interaction, owner distributions against basis, the accountable plan for owner spend running through the books, estimated tax and safe harbor, and the tax treatment of intellectual property.

  • Business transition agent

    RoadmapCredentialed

    Valuation and exit planning, because in practice they are never separate. Normalized earnings with owner add-backs, market multiples, a discounted cash flow fed by the forecasting agent, exit readiness, the gap between what the owner needs and what the business is worth, deal structure and succession paths. It produces calculation-engagement support under the AICPA valuation standards for a CPA to complete and sign — never a number on its own.

  • Decision support agent

    Roadmap

    The questions owners actually ask, each with a real model behind it rather than an open-ended chat: buy or lease the equipment, hire or contract, keep it in house or outsource it, take the big job, add the location, buy the building instead of renting it — plus financing readiness, debt service coverage and a lender package on demand.

  • Tax research agent

    RoadmapCredentialed

    Answers only from an allow-list of IRS and state revenue agency sources, and cites what it used. The other advisory agents call it rather than reasoning from memory.

  • Cost segregation agent

    RoadmapCredentialed

    Works with the fixed asset agent on property already sitting in the client's books.

  • Return intake & progress tracking

    RoadmapCredentialed

    Where a return actually is in the process, visible to the firm and to the client, so nobody has to phone and ask.

  • Budgeting agent

    Roadmap

    Builds budgets and tracks budget against actual.

  • KPI & benchmarking agent

    Roadmap

    Industry ratios and benchmarks alongside the client's own numbers, in the monthly package.

  • Grant & incentive agent

    Roadmap

    Flags credits and incentives the client may qualify for, with the evidence and the caveat that a person needs to confirm eligibility.

  • Scenario modeling agent

    Roadmap

    What-if models for the questions that do not fit a standard template.

  • Covenant monitoring agent

    Roadmap

    Tracks loan covenants against the current numbers and flags a breach before the lender does.

  • Insurance review agent

    Roadmap

    Compares coverage against the balance sheet and flags gaps for a person to review.

  • Succession planning agent

    RoadmapCredentialed

    Ownership transition modeling for closely held businesses, for a CPA to review and present.

  • Charitable giving agent

    RoadmapCredentialed

    Charitable strategy modeling — bunching, donor-advised funds, appreciated property — for a signer to review.

Module 07 · six agents

Back office & growth

  • Collections agent

    Roadmap

    Drafts reminders for overdue client invoices. A person approves each notice before it goes.

  • Software subscriptions agent

    Roadmap

    Keeps a list of the firm's subscriptions, renewals and overlaps.

  • Firm finances agent

    Roadmap

    The firm's own books and cash view, prepared the same way as a client's.

  • Firm dashboard agent

    Roadmap

    One view of workload, deadlines, aging and capacity across the practice.

  • Training & help agent

    Roadmap

    Answers how-do-I questions inside the platform and keeps training records.

  • Approvals inbox & audit trail

    Roadmap

    The one queue every agent writes to, and the append-only record of who approved what and when.

Why some agents carry a credential flag

Tax planning, tax research, cost segregation, return work and valuation are restricted practice. Those agents are available where your firm has a CPA, an EA or an attorney who will sign the work — which is a question about the person, not about the shingle. A bookkeeping practice with a qualified professional on staff or supervising qualifies; a CPA firm whose only credentialed partner has retired does not.

Everything else on the roster, including the cash forecasting and decision support agents, is open to every firm on the platform. Business advisory work is not restricted practice, and we are not going to pretend it is in order to make our tiers tidier.

We publish this list with its real status because a firm that discovers the limits during its first close is a firm that leaves. If a module you need is on the roadmap rather than live, say so when you write to us and we will tell you honestly where it sits.

Why a roster and not one assistant

Narrow agents can be held to a standard. General ones can't.

An agent scoped to one job can be given exactly the access that job needs and nothing more, tested against work the firm already did by hand, and switched off on its own if it starts behaving oddly. An agent asked to do everything can be given none of that.

So each specialist gets least-privilege access, its own thresholds, its own audit entries and its own pause switch — a button in the app, not a support ticket. An orchestrator routes work between them and sends simple, well-defined tasks to smaller and faster models, keeping the expensive judgment calls for the work that actually needs judgment.

The agent catalog screen showing which agents a firm has switched on, which are paused, and the firm's thresholds
  • One ledger snapshot per client per period, shared by every agent
  • Least-privilege scoping — an agent sees only what its job requires
  • No autonomous irreversible actions, anywhere on the platform
  • Rate limits and anomaly thresholds that auto-pause unusual behavior
  • A manual kill switch for one agent or the whole platform
