Should I use an established or AI-native accounting firm?
Established firms and AI native firms both have different advantages. There is unlikely to be a service differential between new and old firms. At a large accounting firm, you may well be their smallest client (they may, for example, work with the likes of Shell) and therefore instead of working with the best people at a smaller, tech-first firm, you are working with the less strong members of a larger company. It is easier to imprint this culture in a new, and small environment. Meanwhile, established firms usually charge higher prices, historically anchored on billing for time, or billing to get on a call with you. This can mean that you end up being overcharged, rather than under-charged, with no service differential.
