Neo.Tax

Platform for SME R&D tax credits

Overview

Neo.Tax helps small to mid-sized businesses claim Research and Development (R&D) tax credits. It offers a streamlined, user-friendly platform and guided support to navigate the complex tax credit application process, helping companies maximize eligible credits. The service uses a mix of platform fees and a success-based fee, meaning Neo.Tax earns a portion of the tax credits actually claimed for clients, aligning its revenue with client outcomes. The company differentiates itself by focusing specifically on R&D credits for SMBs that may lack in-house tax expertise, providing detailed guidance, and tying fees to successful claims. Its goal is to enable businesses to save on taxes and reinvest the savings into further innovation and growth.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • 2026 IRS Section G increases demand for real-time documentation software immediately.
  • Thomson Reuters partnership opens enterprise distribution through ONESOURCE customers in 2026.
  • Domestic R&D expensing restored in 2025 expands advisory volume and customer urgency.

What critics are saying

  • IRS Section G mandatory in 2026 crushes weak competitors and commoditizes features fast.
  • Thomson Reuters can bundle Neo.Tax capabilities into ONESOURCE, squeezing standalone pricing by 2027.
  • If IRS rejects AI-generated substantiation, Neo.Tax loses trust and enterprise pipeline quickly.

What makes Neo.Tax unique

  • Neo.Tax integrates with Thomson Reuters ONESOURCE as of 2026-03-10.
  • Neo.Tax captures contemporaneous engineering data, not retrospective surveys, per 2026-07 product updates.
  • Neo.Tax targets audit-ready R&D claims with Form 6765 Section G automation.
