Breaking the intake bottleneck for a regional tax practice
A regional practice needed to stop burning senior prep time on document collection and structured data entry during peak season.

The bottleneckThe workflow was not failing because staff lacked expertise. It was failing because the team had no reliable way to triage messy client documents into a clean prep-ready queue.
- Manual checklisting created delays before prep could even start
- Status lived across inboxes, spreadsheets, and prep notes with no shared source of truth
- Incomplete files were discovered too late, forcing rework and client back-and-forth
What we builtRed6 designed an intake pipeline that classified incoming files, extracted high-confidence fields, assembled a prep checklist, and routed ambiguous cases into a human review lane.
- Unified intake queue across email, portal exports, and shared drive folders
- Structured extraction for recurring tax document types with source-linked fields
- Missing-item detection rules that triggered follow-up before prep work started
- Reviewer workspace showing low-confidence fields and source snippets side by side
