Wolters Kluwer Tax and Accounting (TAA) today announced AI-enabled enhancements to CCH® AnswerConnect Canada, its leading tax, accounting, and audit research product. The all-encompassing research platform now leverages Generative AI (GenAI) to generate responses within its natural language Q&A function via the “Ask a Question” tab within the platform.

Wolters Kluwer customers can now ask CCH® AnswerConnect Canada questions instead of manually searching through its digitized guide. This development enriches the search experience and enables accounting professionals to create more value for their clients. Furthermore, CCH AnswerConnect’s latest feature is the first GenAI tool available in both French and English for tax research in Canada.

“Our commitment to our clients drives us to develop innovative and reliable solutions that dramatically improve the efficiency of accounting workflows and also foster business growth,” said Dean Sonderegger, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Canada and Research & Learning of Wolters Kluwer TAA North America. “Our investment in firm intelligence for tax and accounting professionals helps empower them to navigate complex issues with ease and to provide additional, value-added services to clients. The introduction of the new GenAI tool to our robust, continuously updated, proprietary content is a testament to this commitment, serving as another powerful resource for our clients' benefits.”

CCH AnswerConnect and GenAI

The new GenAI enhanced search functionality allows for natural language queries from trusted sources within Wolters Kluwer content helping customers understand recent tax law changes, prepare tax returns, and identify tax planning opportunities. The solution conveniently cross-references Wolters Kluwer analysis, written by their in-house experts and outside contributors, delivering timely intelligence. Natural language queries answer the user’s questions in an easy-to-understand format to enable quick comprehension and minimize time analyzing tax legislation.

For added credibility, each answer is backed with sourced documents for additional reference. A Frequently Asked Questions section in every query ensures an enhanced user experience.
