OpenAccountants
Open-source Tax Guides your AI can cite — reviewed by named, licensed accountants.
Every AI can do tax math. None of them can stand behind an answer. Here, real accountants put their name, credential and review date on the Guides your AI reads — publicly, on the record, in this repo.
1,791 Guides across 229 jurisdictions · 188 accountant-reviewed · 33 named accountants · 5,516 questions answered through connected AIs
Live from openaccountants.com — updated 2026-08-09 by the nightly sync.
Try it in 60 seconds
Add the hosted connector to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Windsurf or any MCP client:

Guided setup: openaccountants.com/connect
Then ask a question your AI would otherwise guess at:
"What's the combined sales tax rate in Manatee County, Florida for 2026?"
Without OpenAccountants, models answer from training data. With it, the answer cites the current Guide — and names the accountant who reviewed it.
You: "I'm a freelancer in South Africa. What do I owe?"

Two states, greppable honesty
Every Guide is in exactly one state — and the repo greps honestly:
| State | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Accountant-reviewed | A named, licensed accountant reviewed the complete Guide. Their name is in the frontmatter (reviewed_by:) and on the public roster |
| Source-cited draft | Written from primary legislation, every figure cited to its source — not yet professionally reviewed |
⚠️ General reference, not advice. Guides may be incomplete, outdated, or wrong for your facts. Have a qualified professional review outputs before filing, payment, or action.
Are you an accountant?
Your name on the tax knowledge AI actually uses — with attribution built in:
- Build a Guide for the work you know cold: openaccountants.com/skills/new. It publishes credited to you, and lands in this repo under your name.
- Review a Guide in your jurisdiction — your name, credential and review date go on it, here and on every AI answer that cites it.
- Set your GitHub username in your profile and your platform edits are committed to this repo as you — your contribution graph reflects your work.
The current roster: VERIFIERS.md (generated nightly from the platform).
Contributing
Edit skills/** only — everything else regenerates automatically:
