Tax Orator raised $4.5M in seed funding to put cited tax research answers in front of the CPAs, EAs, and tax attorneys who need them. ICAEW and Outward VC backed the round.
The company's tool takes a complex tax question and returns an answer in seconds, with citations to IRS publications, IRC sections, and Treasury regulations attached to every response. It was built by Rex Hamlett, a CPA with more than 20 years in tax, who got tired of waiting for a research tool that respected a practitioner's time and budget. Federal coverage is grounded in primary sources, with a framework extending to all 50 states.
