What it is
Keeper combines bookkeeping and tax filing, using AI and human accountants to identify potential tax savings and prepare returns. It scans linked financial transactions for possible deductions, which users can review, supplement with receipt photos, and organize with rules. Keeper offers federal and state filing, and says a tax professional reviews and signs every return. The 24/7 AI tax assistant provides tax help, while Premium includes one-on-one consultations with a tax professional. Standard costs $199 a year and includes 10 financial accounts; Premium costs $399 a year, and Business costs $1,199 a year. Bookkeeping Only costs $20 a month and tracks expenses but does not include filing. Standard includes federal and up to two state returns; Premium and Business cover three or more states. The 14-day trial does not permit exporting deductions or submitting a return for IRS filing. Keeper connects accounts through Plaid and says it does not have access to bank login information. It says it uses banking-grade encryption. Apps are available for Android, iOS, and web.
