Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can this reduce the risk of incorrect tax conclusions?

It can reduce operational errors by enforcing checklists and collecting the right documents, but it shouldn’t be the final source of truth. Keep tax positions and filings reviewed by qualified professionals.

2) How does it help with PE (permanent establishment) risk?

By tracking relevant signals (where decisions are made, where teams operate) and prompting for documentation. It’s a coordination and evidence WhatsApp Business API (via meta business), not a legal determination engine.

3) Does it integrate with Estonian e-services?

Integration is typically phased: start with calendar/deadline workflows and document storage, then add API-based status checks where available. Keep sensitive actions behind approval gates.

4) What’s the minimum setup to get value?

Define the top workflows: onboarding checklist, VAT reminders, dividend/distribution tracking, and annual report preparation. Add more as your process stabilizes.

5) How do we handle multi-country founders and nomads?

Use structured intake (residency, management location, travel patterns) and keep conclusions as reviewed outputs. The assistant helps you collect and organize facts consistently.

6) How long does a pilot take?

Often 1–2 weeks for a basic workflow pilot if you already have client intake templates and document storage in place.
