Who it's for

SurePrep 1040SCAN is listed as a fit for small and mid-size firms, and the vendor names tax offices and small CPA firms on its own site. The job it gets hired for: collecting client documents, reading them and getting the numbers into the ledger or the return without retyping. It also fits the Tax Preparation & Review AI category.

What it costs

SurePrep 1040SCAN is priced by quote, so the demo is where you get a number tailored to your firm. Ask the vendor about a trial when you reach out.
