No. We do not use AI tools to rewrite, generate, or substantially transform content. Every document is proofread personally, not by artificial intelligence, to ensure accuracy, confidentiality, and professional integrity. While AI tools can be helpful for some general tasks, they are not reliable enough for A&A work where every word and number matter.

Remember: AI cannot be relied upon to audit; After all, it is AI that requires auditing.

We may consult reputable professional resources to support accuracy and consistency. These resources include state and federal CPA societies, accounting and regulatory publications, industry tools, professional style guides, grammar and usage references, and similar materials, some of which may use AI for rule validation, terminology checks, or community-sourced guidance. These tools are used only to confirm standards, not to replace or generate content. We may use limited AI-assisted tools only for general grammar or rule validation on short, non-sensitive excerpts and never on financial data, client identifiers, or full documents. AI tools are used in a way that does not permit the platform to store or train on client content. Client documents are never uploaded or submitted in full to AI systems.

We will proofread and edit any of your AI-generated content; however, AI-generated material may contain errors, unsupported statements, or noncompliant language. Proofreading services do not include verification of factual accuracy, ASB/SAS/GAAS, FASB/GAAP, PCAOB, compliance, tax interpretations, regulatory alignment (FERC), or professional judgment. You are solely responsible for confirming that all technical and financial content, whether human written or AI generated, is accurate, appropriate for its intended use, and compliant with applicable accounting and professional standards.

AI often misses critical details such as:

• Accounting-specific terminology, like the difference between material vs. materiality, expense vs. expenditure, or deferred vs. contingent.
• GAAP and AICPA wording nuances, including capitalization, required phrasing, and subtle distinctions in audit opinions or notes.
• Homophones and near-matches that change meaning in financial contexts: principal/principle, affect/effect, formally/formerly, capital/capitol, statute/statute (law), role/roll, cite/site/sight.
• Proper names, entity names, or spelling variations, such as Jon vs. John, Nike USA, Inc. vs. Nike North America, Inc., or vendor/customer naming inconsistencies.
• Numbering, footnotes, and cross-reference accuracy, including mismatched note numbers, out-of-sequence headings, or forgotten updates after edits.
• Mathematical accuracy and tie-outs, including totals, subtotals, cross-footing, calculations, and consistency between the notes and the face of the financial statements.
• Formatting and structural placement consistency, such as misaligned headings, inconsistent bullets, indentation issues, or template drift from firm standards.
• Contextual meaning errors that AI often misinterprets, like mixing up imprest vs. implied, reserve vs. allowance, or provision vs. accrual.
• Commonly confused accounting terms, such as: trial/trail balance, dependent/dependant, variance/deviation, revenue/receipt, counsel/council.

That’s why we rely on our training, experience, and specially-developed Proper Proofreading Protocol™ to ensure accuracy, consistency, and confidentiality. Your documents are never run through AI software or exposed to outside platforms.
