- Red-team review before approval; filed versions are permanent.
W/P ref P-1 · Hysaab Practice · for tax and advisory firmsPrepared by agents · Decided by your partners
Every return checked before a partner signs it.
Agents run the tax work: hundreds of VAT and CT checks, treatments drawn from your own precedents and a red-team review before anything is filed. Your partners make the calls, and the firm runs itself around the work.
Illustration of a VAT return in Hysaab Practice: the client's listings are read, 144 VAT checks run, a treatment is proposed from the firm's own precedent, a red-team review challenges the return and the narrative is drafted, leaving it ready for the partner's approval.
W/P ref P-2 · The tax work firstThe work clients pay you for
Your people spend their hours on the calls.
The work clients pay your firm for is judgement on their tax. Hysaab Practice prepares and tests that work first.
- 01
Hundreds of VAT and CT checks.
Every return runs through hundreds of checks across completeness, treatment and examination before anyone is asked to review it. Each finding names the rule and the figure it concerns.
- 02
Treatments from your own precedents.
Tax treatments are proposed from the firm’s own precedents first, with the source shown, so the answer is the one your firm would give.
- 03
A red-team review before approval.
A red-team review challenges the return before a partner approves it. Filed versions are permanent: corrections supersede, never overwrite.
W/P ref P-3 · A day in the firmIllustrative firm and clients
One Tuesday. Six moments the admin used to eat.
Press the buttons in the window: nothing the AI proposes counts until a person confirms it.
W/P ref P-4 · And the firm runs itself around itOne record underneath
Nine areas of the firm. One system underneath.
Clients, filings, time, billing and people share one record, so a signed engagement letter creates the obligations, the obligations create the work, and the work becomes the timesheet and the invoice.

- Built-in e-signature sealed with a SHA-256 audit certificate.

- Expenses with receipts read automatically.
Firm
Run the practice on numbers
- Realisation, effective rate and utilisation per person and per client.
- Capacity eight weeks ahead: who is idle, who is running hot.
- Firm brief and weekly digest for the partners.
People
HR without the spreadsheet
- Leave, letters and documents in self-service.
- Appraisals where only a person can give a rating.
- Payroll with approval, visible to owners only.
What it replaces: the practice management tool, the shared inbox, the deadline spreadsheets, the document portal, the CRM, the e-signature app, the timesheet app and the HR file.
W/P ref P-5 · Time and costEvery assumption on the page
What the admin is costing your firm.
Put in your team and your hourly cost. Every assumption is on the page, so the number is yours to argue with.
W/P ref P-6 · The rulesHow the AI is allowed to work
The model proposes. Code computes. A named person confirms.
Proposals, not actions
Every AI suggestion is a card
Tasks, timesheet lines, obligations and tax treatments arrive as proposals. Nothing is created until someone accepts it.
People send
No email leaves on its own
Replies are drafted, never sent automatically. Auto-send to a client is off by default and, when enabled, waits in a 24-hour hold.
Money is deterministic
Code does the arithmetic
Fees, WIP, realisation and every tax figure are computed in code. The AI writes words around numbers, never the numbers.
Accountable by design
A ledger of AI decisions
Every AI decision is logged with whether a person agreed, and governance reports show clients and regulators how AI is used.
Judgement stays human
Some things AI cannot touch
Appraisal ratings are human only. Automation rules ship switched off. Returns, invoices and payroll need a maker and a checker.
Built to be trusted
Security from the first table
Row-level security on every table, access by engagement team, mandatory two-factor sign-in, expiring links, malware-scanned uploads and daily backups.
W/P ref P-7 · Five questions firms askStraight answers
Your clients stay yours. Here is where we draw the line.
Do you compete with us for clients?
No. Hysaab Practice and Hysaab Audit are software for your firm. We do not use your workspace to find, contact or sell to your clients. Oblique Consult, the advisory firm our founders also run, has no access to your workspace or your client list.
Who owns our client data and the client relationships?
You do. The client records, files and working papers you put into Hysaab belong to your firm, and we process them only to run the service for you. Each client relationship is yours. Hysaab deals with your clients only where you invite them into the workspace, and only to exchange work with your firm.
Will you contact our clients?
Not for our own purposes. Anything your clients receive through Hysaab is sent by your firm, when a person at your firm presses send. We do not market to your clients or approach them for work.
Can we keep our own brand, or white-label Hysaab?
Your clients deal with your firm, not with us. Reports, letters and returns you prepare in Hysaab go out as your firm’s work. How far the client-facing screens can carry your own brand is agreed with each firm before you start, and we will tell you plainly what is available today.
What happens to our data if we leave?
You can take a full export of your records and documents before you go. After that we delete your firm’s data from the service on the timetable in your agreement, keeping only what the law requires us to keep, and we confirm in writing when it is done.
If you sign audit opinionsHysaab AuditThe file runs here tooEvery journal scored against thirty ISA 240 criteria, samples designed and evaluated, workpapers written as the work concludes. Hysaab never signs an opinion.Read furtherTrustOur commitments to firmsHow we look after your data, and the commercial boundaries we keep.
W/P ref P-8 · Built inside a working Gulf tax firmA person replies
Give your people their judgement back.
Hysaab Practice started as the system our own advisory practice runs on. Every screen exists because a partner, a manager or a junior needed it on a real deadline, for real clients with the FTA on the other end. We are opening it to a small group of firms in the UAE and KSA first.
We will show you what works today, label what does not, and never let the AI make a call that belongs to your people.
