OneCFO Group has launched an artificial intelligence-powered tax platform aimed at helping businesses and individual taxpayers navigate increasingly complex compliance requirements, reflecting the growing use of AI tools in professional and financial services.
The new platform, DocTax, combines an AI-driven tax assistant with access to accredited tax professionals, allowing users to obtain quick guidance on common tax issues while connecting them with experts for more specialized concerns.
The service targets micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), freelancers, self-employed professionals, online entrepreneurs, and individual taxpayers, many of whom face challenges interpreting tax rules and compliance requirements without professional assistance.
Users can access information on taxpayer registration, filing obligations, deductions, documentation requirements, and other compliance-related matters through the platform’s AI interface. More complex cases can be referred to verified tax practitioners for further guidance.
“Tax guidance should not only be fast. It should also be reliable, practical, and connected to real expertise,” said Jay Olos, founder and chairman of OneCFO Group.
The launch comes as tax compliance in the Philippines becomes increasingly digital, creating demand for tools that can help taxpayers keep pace with regulatory requirements while reducing the risk of costly filing errors.
Industry observers note that AI-powered advisory platforms are gaining traction globally as businesses seek faster access to information without sacrificing professional oversight. The challenge, however, lies in ensuring that automated guidance remains accurate and aligned with constantly evolving regulations.
Joel Tan-Torres, former commissioner of the Bureau of Internal Revenue and an investor and board director of DocTax, said improving access to understandable tax information could strengthen compliance and taxpayer confidence.
“Tax systems work better when people understand them better,” Tan-Torres said.
By combining AI technology with professional expertise, OneCFO is positioning DocTax as a bridge between digital convenience and regulatory compliance, a market opportunity that is expected to grow as more taxpayers seek accessible, on-demand guidance in an increasingly complex tax environment.
