Your firm, engagement types and clients are configured with our team.

01 · START

Getting started

What happens between first conversation and a practice-ready workspace.

01How do we get started?
Onboarding is handled directly by our team. There is no self-service sign-up—we provision your firm, set up your engagement types and bring your client list across with you, so the platform is usable from the first day rather than an empty shell.
Configuration is guided because the operating model—not an empty login—is what creates value.
02Why is there no free trial?
Practice management is only meaningful with your real clients, engagement types and deadlines loaded. A self-serve trial on empty data tells you nothing useful, so we run a demo against how your firm actually works instead.
03Can we bring existing clients and engagements across?
Yes. Client records and recurring engagement types are set up during onboarding. Talk to us about what you hold today and in what format.
02 · FIT

Practice fit

Who the platform is designed for and how local compliance work fits.

04Who is Audeska for?
Chartered Accountancy practices in Pakistan running recurring compliance and advisory work across a book of clients—firms where more than one person touches an engagement and review has to be evidenced.
05Does it cover Pakistani filings specifically?
Yes. Recurring obligations, terminology and the July–June fiscal year follow Pakistani practice, including monthly sales tax returns, withholding statements and advance tax under section 147, with engagement templates for corporate and individual filings.
06Do our clients need to use it?
Only if you want them to. The client portal is optional per client—useful where you are chasing records, unnecessary where you are not.
03 · CONTROL

Data & access

How firm boundaries, internal roles and client visibility are controlled.

07Where does our data sit, and who can see it?
Each firm gets its own database schema, so separation between firms is enforced at the storage layer rather than by a filter in application code. Inside your firm, visibility follows role—partners and staff see the clients and engagements they are responsible for.
08What can a client see in the portal?
Only their own engagements, and only the documents someone at your firm has explicitly shared. Approving a document internally does not release it to the client—that is a separate, deliberate action.
09Is our data encrypted?
Data is encrypted in transit and at rest.

Audeska Ask

The source-grounded tax research assistant—and the gates before release.

10Is Audeska Ask available?
Not yet—it is in development. Before any firm sees it, it has to run on a legally current, versioned corpus with every rate and threshold human-reviewed, and pass an evaluation suite with zero fabricated citations. Read the full product and release-gate explanation.
11Will it give tax advice?
No. It is intended as a research aid for qualified professionals, citing primary sources you can check. It will not replace professional judgement or review.

Your question is probably specific to how your practice works.

Bring the engagement, handoff or control point you want to improve. We will make the conversation concrete.
