Key Products

Boast’s platform simplifies the complex process of claiming R&D tax credits by leveraging proprietary AI algorithms to analyze each customer’s entire R&D digital footprint. This ensures that every minute and dollar spent on eligible projects is accurately accounted for. The platform’s AI classifier assigns confidence scores to evaluate the tax credit eligibility of each task, offering precise classification of projects. Higher scores indicate greater confidence in eligibility, while non-R&D projects are automatically filtered out based on the provided information.

Boast integrates seamlessly with leading technical and financial systems, enabling teams to extract data directly from customers’ project management, technical, accounting, and payroll systems. With secure integration across hundreds of platforms, Boast makes capturing and qualifying R&D investments efficient, accurate, and real-time.
