How the practice tools work

The following walkthroughs explain the eleven cards on the Founding Offer page. Rolling bonus tools release after beta clearance; these are intended workflows, not a claim that every tool is already operational.

1. POA auto-fill
  1. Capture client identifying information, relevant tax matters and periods, and representative details once.
  2. Map that record to supported federal, state, local and motor-carrier forms.
  3. Review every draft and route it to signing or the authority’s accepted submission channel.
See the complete POA walkthrough
2. Client collaboration
  1. Attach a document request, question or intake step to the client record.
  2. Select one or more transactions that need clarification and send the selected rows to the client with a linked question. The client can explain the business purpose, identify personal items or transfers, and attach supporting documents; replies stay linked to the selected transactions.
  3. Notify the client and let them respond through the Standard client portal; professional branding follows White Label enrollment.
  4. Track pending, in-progress and completed actions. eSignature follows the rolling SignSimba release.
3. Reminder / Client Chaser System
  1. Set a reminder schedule, template and stop condition for an outstanding request.
  2. Send scheduled email or SMS reminders when the service is available.
  3. Stop when the condition is met or the professional cancels. Extra communication charges apply as published.
4. Win and retain business clients
  1. Create a public pricing widget or a private proposal for a selected prospect.
  2. Move acceptance into an engagement agreement and eSignature.
  3. Follow with onboarding, invoices and billing as the rolling bonus tools clear beta.
5. Optional AI / BYOK
  1. Choose whether to use AI. Manual and pre-built-library categorization remain available.
  2. If using BYOK, enter the supported provider key and request categorization suggestions for review.
  3. The AI provider bills its usage under your own account; separately published CatSimba platform or optional-service charges may apply.
Review AI / BYOK
6. Quarterly estimates - Coming Soon
  1. Use reviewed year-to-date income and expense data as an input to an estimated-tax workflow.
  2. Have the professional calculate, review and adjust estimates before client notification.
  3. Track amount, deadline and payment status. Tax payments use the relevant authority’s accepted payment channel. Release follows beta clearance.
7. Bank Connectivity
  1. Enable the optional per-client connection when available. Upload-only work remains possible.
  2. Connect supported accounts through a secure provider flow: $5.77/client/month includes up to four feeds, plus $1.77 for each additional feed.
  3. Import transactions into categorization and review. Coverage and sync behavior depend on the supported provider and institution.
8. White Label
  1. Enroll annually, including with zero active Standard clients.
  2. Choose a CatSimba-hosted branded subdomain or your own custom domain.
  3. Automatically cover all active Standard clients. Essentials clients do not count or gain Standard features through enrollment.

9. W9 - 1099 Chaser / Vendor Compliance
  1. A vendor opens the registration option on the business client’s website.
  2. Collect business details, W-9 information and checklist documents for professional review.
  3. Use approved records in 1099 preparation. Eligible migrating clients receive up to five federal filings in their first CatSimba filing season under the migration rules.
See self-service vendor onboarding
10. Payment orchestration
  1. Choose an enabled gateway and compatible vault from the supported orchestration setup.
  2. Use the provider’s secure payment-entry flow and retain a token/reference for permitted future use.
  3. The gateway processes and settles funds to the merchant account; CatSimba orchestrates the workflow.
See gateways and tokenization
11. Client onboarding and checklists
  1. Choose or build a checklist suited to the client.
  2. Guide questionnaires, documents and engagement steps in order.
  3. Track completion and reuse approved intake data across workpapers, POAs and vendor workflows as each tool becomes available.
