# Breeze Tax Review: Pricing, Features, Alternatives Breeze Tax: Early-stage 1040 document extraction and cited tax research alongside the firm's existing software. Pricing from On request, SOC 2 unconfirmed, and how it compares to the alternatives, for US accounting and bookkeeping firms. Source: https://node8.ai/accounting-tools/tax-workflow/breeze-tax/ --- [Accounting Tools](https://node8.ai/accounting-tools/) · [Tax Workflow & Document Automation](https://node8.ai/accounting-tools/tax-workflow/) # Breeze Tax One to Watch · Breeze Tax Early-stage 1040 document extraction and cited tax research alongside the firm's existing software [Visit Breeze Tax](https://breeze.tax/) [All 26 tax workflow & document automation tools](https://node8.ai/accounting-tools/tax-workflow/) Best for Solo preparers and very small 1040 practices willing to work directly with a founder-stage vendor Starting price On request SOC 2 Unconfirmed Multi-factor auth Unconfirmed Ownership independent (Entrepreneurs First) Integrates with CCH Axcess, UltraTax CS, Drake Tax, ProConnect The read ## What Breeze Tax does Three jobs sit on the Breeze Tax site: pulling structured data out of client documents including K-1 packets, generating a per-client organizer that asks only for what that client needs, and answering tax research questions with citations to the Internal Revenue Code, Treasury Regulations and IRS guidance while holding the client's own documents as context. The positioning is deliberately additive. Breeze says it works alongside whatever tax software the firm already runs rather than replacing it, and names CCH Axcess, UltraTax CS, Drake Tax and ProConnect as the programs it fits with. The research feature is the part that distinguishes it. Most tools in this category stop at extraction, and a research answer that has already read the client's brokerage statement and K-1 is a different thing from a general chat interface pointed at tax law. Whether the citations hold up under a reviewer's scrutiny is not something the site demonstrates, and there is no worked example on the page. What the site does show, unavoidably, is stage. The whole company is a single-page site with anchor links, no separate pricing, security or customer pages. The contact route is the founder's personal Calendly, a personal mobile number and a named IRS PTIN. There are no customer names, no case studies, no return volumes, no company blog, and no SOC 2 claim of any kind. Security is described as US-based infrastructure, AES-256 encryption at rest and in transit, audit logging and controls aligned to IRS expectations, which is a statement of intent rather than an attested report. Nothing addresses e-signature, so Form 8879 with knowledge-based authentication and the KBA fallback for older clients is not part of this. Nothing establishes whether extraction writes into the tax program or only produces organised output, which is the single question that determines whether the tool removes keystrokes or just reorganises them. And nothing says what share of documents is checked by a person, or by whom. Compared with Black Ore, which names nine tax programs and publishes a SOC 2 Type II, or Filed, which names customer firms and publishes a pricing model, Breeze is at a much earlier point on every axis a firm would use to evaluate risk. Compared with GruntWorx, which does one narrow job cheaply and reliably, Breeze promises more and proves less. A firm that wants extraction it can budget for this season has better options. One-to-watch is generous and it is the right call. Founder-stage products sometimes turn into the best tool in a category, and the combination of a registered preparer with an AI background and a research feature grounded in the client's own file is a sensible thesis. But nothing on the public record shows this running at any firm, through any season, at any price. Treat it as a conversation worth having rather than a product to put in front of clients, and expect to be an early customer with all that implies for support and roadmap. Capabilities ## What you get Extraction from complex source documents including Schedule K-1 packets Per-client organizers generated as a tailored document request Tax research answers cited to the IRC, Treasury Regulations and IRS guidance, with client documents as context Audit logging of every data access Pricing, security, integrations ## What it costs and what it connects to The vendor does not publish a price for Breeze Tax; it is quoted per firm, usually on firm size or entity count. We could not confirm a SOC 2 report for Breeze Tax from public sources. Ask the vendor directly before it touches client data — an absence here means unverified, not absent. Breeze Tax does not integrate directly with a general ledger. On the tax side it works with CCH Axcess, UltraTax CS, Drake Tax and ProConnect, which covers most of what US firms run.
