AI-assisted R&D tax-credit claims prepared and reviewed by specialists.

What ClaimKit does

ClaimKit prepares federal and state R&D tax-credit claims for U.S. businesses, with a focus on hardware companies. It reviews wages, supplies, contract research and computing costs, tying the supporting evidence to individual business components.

AI helps organize material such as engineering activity, test reports, purchase orders and payroll records. R&D tax specialists review the resulting claim and study, with the output prepared for Form 6765 and relevant state filings.

The service also supports continuing evidence collection and assistance with an audit. Clients buy a completed tax-credit engagement, with a published success-fee model, rather than software they must use to reconstruct and prepare the entire claim themselves.
