Bring the entire engagement lifecycle into one AI-native workspace. Ingest trial balances, govern workpapers, prepare financial statement reporting, and connect confirmations without leaving the engagement.
Unlike legacy platforms with generic chatbots attached to the side, Audit Essentials was engineered as an AI-native workspace. AI lives directly inside trial balances, sampling calculators, and lead sheets.
Every suggestion generates formal, reviewable audit evidence with permanent cryptographic version history. The AI accelerates mechanical preparation, while licensed auditors retain exclusive sign-off authority.
Client financial records and PII are pseudonymized on the fly and never fed into public training sets. Every analytical procedure runs strictly in an isolated, private tenant.
Import your General Ledger once: Confermax builds your Trial Balance, manages dynamic Audit Programs, executes Standard Testing, governs Working Papers, coordinates Provided By Client (PBC) requests, and generates financial statement reports in one workspace.
Eliminate manual mapping and spreadsheet linking. Drop in the General Ledger and move straight from raw transactions to standardized audit testing and completed financial reports.
Give clients a clean, firm-branded portal and Guided Smart Inbox while keeping every PBC request, query, and review tied directly to the underlying audit schedule.
Issue digital Engagement Letters under ISA 210, perform statutory KYB business registration checks, and map accounts into Sub-Ledgers and Trial Balances.
Connect PBC requests to ledger transactions, review uploaded evidence inline, and resolve client queries in one unified thread.
Execute standardized audit testing programs, ISA 530 sampling, substantive analytical procedures, and post adjusting entries seamlessly.
Generate your Audit Trial Balance, Balance Sheet, Income Statement, and ratio analysis with an unbroken, inspection-ready evidence trail.
Send ISA 505 bank confirmation and audit confirmation requests directly from the engagement, track client authorization and responder progress, and link signed responses back to the relevant workpaper. No re-keying, no separate tracker, and no gap in the audit evidence trail.
Built primarily for document collection and request tracking. Once the GL and client files are uploaded, auditors still have to export data into external spreadsheets or separate tools to reconcile sub-ledgers, build working papers, post adjustments, and prepare financial statements.
Combines client PBC collaboration, a firm-branded white-label portal, and full audit execution in one platform. Every client upload, smart inbox request, and inline query stays directly connected to your live Trial Balance, Working Papers, and auto-generated Financial Reports.
Fulfill AML/CTF mandates, international compliance, and statutory client continuance directly inside your audit platform. Retrieve official KYB reports, verify company registrations, and run local biometric KYC verification with zero third-party data leakage.
Run official company searches, business registration checks, and Annual Return (NAR1) filings with instant shareholding structure charts.
Screen corporate entities and executives against international sanctions watchlists, Politically Exposed Persons (PEP), and adverse media.
Generate detailed KYC reports for individual directors, legal representatives, and beneficial owners. Configure recurring re-screening cycles (monthly, semi-annually, annually) to ensure continuous practice review compliance without manual diary tracking.
Document inspection and biometric verification run strictly on isolated, private local infrastructure and are never farmed out to third-party public consumer APIs. Identity documents are secured with authenticated AES-256-GCM encryption.
Compare live client facial captures against identity card portraits in real time. Advanced liveness analysis checks skin texture, pose angles, and motion frames to detect synthetic ghost portraits, screen replay, or photo attacks.
Full OCR parsing across HKID, Mainland China IDs, and international passports with Cap. 177A statutory checks. Direct Hong Kong iAM Smart integration enables instant form pre-fill and legally binding digital signatures.
Third-Party KYC & Verification Integrations: In addition to native private IDV capabilities, Confermax also works and integrates with accredited third-party KYC/AML providers such as Fill-Easy, enabling audit practices to seamlessly connect their preferred verification partners.
The biggest bottleneck in auditing is dealing with massive, corrupted client data files. Our column-oriented in-memory engine ingests millions of financial records in milliseconds, turning raw dumps into audit-ready analytics.
Drop messy client Excel or CSV files straight into the workspace without manual cleanup. The engine normalizes mixed types, date anomalies, and spreadsheet calculation traps like #VALUE! and #REF! instantly.
Ask plain-language audit questions to execute complex multi-table queries against live ledger data. Screen for weekend postings, unrecorded liabilities, split approval amounts, and 3-way PO-to-invoice variances in seconds.
Automatically test first- and second-order leading-digit distributions across material accounts to detect artificial numbers. Flag suspicious round sums, duplicate payments, and manual override journals immediately.
Automate trial balance tie-outs and audit lead sheets for AR, AP, and general ledger accounts with clean audit trails.
Execute Monetary Unit Sampling and statistical sample selection across ledger populations for defensible audit evidence.
Drill through transactional layers to isolate the exact vendor, customer, or transaction cluster driving variances. Transform audit exceptions directly into high-value client management letter recommendations.
Confermax AI combines authoritative Library grounding, agentic audit workflows, and strict privacy guardrails. Every output is designed for human review, with citations across accounting, auditing, tax, and legal sources.
Ask plain-language scenario questions across complex lease accounting (IFRS 16), revenue recognition milestones (IFRS 15), deferred tax treatments, ISA substantive sampling parameters, and statutory legal requirements, receiving instant structured answers.
Safeguards against hallucination risk. Because Confermax AI is anchored to our verified Library, it states when an issue is not addressed in standard literature, rather than speculating to fill a vacuum.
A curated collection of essential information across the tax, accounting, auditing, and legal professions. We continuously gather and maintain relevant professional knowledge from across the global network, expanding the Library over time.
Confermax AI executes multi-step workflows across Project Analytics, Report Analysis, Analytical Review (ISA 520), Document Compare, Document Drafting, and Research while keeping licensed auditors in control of every conclusion.
Your firm's own private mini-library operating in a 100% isolated silo. Upload internal policies, templates, and firm guidance to work seamlessly with Confermax AI Skills and the Main Library, never shared with anyone, not even Confermax personnel.
Built-in Privacy Shield and PII Guardrails prevent the LLM from accessing private information, including personally identifiable data. Backed by Zero Data Retention (ZDR), your data is never used to train the LLM.
Engineered to deliver immediate return on investment for practices from two to two hundred practitioners. Scale your firm's capacity without increasing fixed overhead.
Deliver fast, standardized audits on demanding deadlines without expanding fixed headcount.
Shorten turnaround times across annual audits and interim reviews with structured lead sheets.
