“How did we treat this last year?” should take ten seconds.

The answer is in last year's workpapers, a partner review note, or an email nobody can find in March. AiSU reads across them and answers in plain English — citing the file and page, so the reasoning is auditable rather than remembered.

Answers are AI-generated. The citation is there so the preparer verifies the treatment in the file before relying on it — AiSU does not give accounting or tax advice.

Where it earns its keep

The unbillable hours busy season is made of.

Answering the auditor

When a reviewer asks for support, ask for it in plain English instead of hunting through last year's folder structure. Every answer names the file, the tab and the page.

The trail is the citation — nothing to reconstruct afterwards.

Consistency across engagements

Check how a treatment, disclosure or threshold was applied on comparable clients before you set it here — so two partners do not quietly diverge.

Reads workpapers and review notes, not just filenames.

One firm, several offices

Offices that grew by acquisition run different drives and different templates. One question searches all of them, so nobody emails four colleagues for a schedule that already exists.

Google and Microsoft estates searched side by side.

Everything on one client

Engagement letters, prior-year files, correspondence and the Slack thread where the fee was agreed — gathered by asking, without opening five systems.

Sources open in place; nothing is copied out.

The question your compliance partner will ask

Client confidentiality and independence, unchanged.

Permissions come from the sourceEvery search runs with the asking person's own credentials. If they cannot open a client folder in Drive or SharePoint, AiSU will not quote from it or reveal that it exists — so engagement teams stay separated.
Client files are not retainedDocuments are read to answer the question, then discarded. We store derived search data, never copies of client records, and never train models on them.
EU hosting, or your own buildingProcessing sits in the EU by default. Where an engagement demands it, the hybrid on-premise option runs inside your own network on Apple silicon, offline.

Connects to what you have

Read-only, in an afternoon.

Sign in with Google or Microsoft, choose the drives and channels in scope, and the first index finishes while you get on with the day. No write access is requested, and disconnecting removes the index. Set it up out of season and it is ready when January is not.

Test it on last year's file.

Connect one drive, ask about a treatment you had to look up in March, and see whether the citation lands on the right page. Seven days, no card.
