The Practice Solution

Grounded Tax Solutions™

End-to-end tax, built into your membership.

Tax preparation, filing, and multi-year forecasting are not third-party services bolted on in March — they live inside your Financial Practice, year-round. Strategy and execution run in the same system, so opportunities are identified early, implemented correctly, and reconciled against actual results.

How Grounded Tax Solutions Works

Four principles, applied without exception.

01

Dynamic Forecasting

We don’t just record history; we model it forward. Your current-year tax liability or refund updates in real time as income, deductions, and capital activity move — and liquidity events, capital gains, charitable offsets, and Roth windows are modeled before they happen, so the tax decision is the strategy, not the consequence.

02

Multi-Generational Architecture

Trusts, LLCs, family limited partnerships, K-1 distributions, generation-skipping transfers. Liabilities are routed and coordinated across the family tree, and exemptions are optimized at every node — including yours.

03

Year-Round Planning

Bracket management, capital-gain timing, Roth conversions, charitable bunching, asset location. The work happens before December, not after — because once the year closes, most levers stop moving.

04

Integrated CPA Workflow

Whether your return is filed by our digital platform or a vetted CPA partner, the same plan, ownership, and basis data feed in. No re-explaining your situation, no missed elections, no black holes between strategy and filing.

File Your Way

You decide how taxes get done.

Whether you prefer the speed of a fully digital workflow or the reassurance of a sit-down with a seasoned professional, the underlying plan, data, and forecast are the same. Your channel choice is about preference, not capability.

Grounded Digital

Frictionless, mobile-first tax workflow.

Connect your accounts, approve smart-scanned documents, and sign your return on your phone. Everything from W-2s to K-1s flows in automatically and reconciles against the year’s plan.

  • Auto-import from custodians, payroll, and entities
  • Smart-scan receipts and 1099s
  • In-app review and e-signature
  • Year-over-year audit trail

CPA Partner Network

A human, when you want one.

Prefer a real person? Your data syncs with a vetted CPA partner who finalizes and files on your behalf, coordinated against your Grounded plan. Same data, same forecast, human signature.

  • Vetted, state-licensed CPA & EA partners
  • Direct sync of plan, ownership, and basis data
  • Coordinated review against your forecast
  • Audit support coordinated through your CPA

Integrated Planning vs. Annual Filing

Why most tax advice arrives too late.

Industry Norm

Most CPAs and Tax-Prep Firms

  • Engaged once a year, after the year is already closed
  • Filing is the product; strategy is a separate (or absent) service
  • Disconnected from investments, entities, and estate plan
  • Per-return billing, often with surprise add-ons
  • Backward-looking — record what happened, can’t change it

Our Approach

Grounded Tax Solutions™

  • Tax strategy and filing live in the same system, year-round
  • Forecast-driven — model the decision before the year closes
  • Coordinated with investments (GTAP™), entities, and estate plan
  • Filing included in membership; no surprise April invoice
  • Multi-year view: this year’s decision and next year’s consequence

Complimentary — No Obligation

Multi-Year Tax Forecast & Strategy Review

Send us last year’s return and a snapshot of your accounts. We’ll model the next 3–5 years of your tax exposure, identify the highest-leverage decisions still open this year, and give you a written summary in plain language. Fee-only, no follow-up sales pressure.

  • Multi-year tax forecast (3–5 years)
  • Roth conversion and bracket-management opportunities
  • Capital-gains and harvest timing analysis
