The reliable spine
The reliable spine is deterministic: the engagement-and-obligation register, the deadline rules with named owners and escalations, and the per-entity statutory calendars with their evidence.
Professional Services (CA, Law, Consulting)
Conflict, independence and obligation register
A missed conflict, a broken independence rule, a lapsed licence or a missed statutory deadline is a professional-liability event, not a small one, and today it rides on one careful person's memory and a spreadsheet. For a CS or compliance practice the firm is running dozens of client entities' statutory calendars at once, so a single missed ROC, RERA or labour deadline lands a penalty on a client and a trust hit on the firm. Regulation here is navigated as part of the work and is a selling point, never a reason to shrink the offer.
Who has it
Company-secretary and compliance practices have it as the whole business, in multi-client statutory calendars; CA, accounting and tax firms in audit independence and GST, TDS and ROC deadlines; law firms in conflict checks and limitation and matter deadlines; advisory and consulting firms in engagement-scope and regulatory obligations.
What we build
One engagement-and-obligation register with deadline alerts, named owners and escalations, covering the firm's own statutory calendar and (for CS/compliance practices) every client entity's calendar with its evidence. AI checks a new engagement against the firm's conflict list and its own checklists and flags a possible conflict, independence breach or gap for a partner to disposition. AI flags; it never clears. A partner accepts the engagement, with the decision logged.
What is automated, where AI helps, who signs off
Automation for the routine. A person on every decision that matters.
Where AI helps
AI is limited to reading a new engagement against the firm's conflict list and its own checklists and flagging a possible conflict, independence breach or gap for a partner to disposition; it flags, it never clears, and it never owns the number, the approval, the promise or the decision.
Who signs off
A named person signs off anything touching money, a customer promise, a regulated filing, a payment, a price, a credit decision or a people decision.
What changes day to day
Conflicts and independence gaps are flagged before acceptance, not discovered after; deadlines run to a register with a named owner instead of to memory; evidence is retrievable in minutes; regulation becomes a managed, provable strength the practice stands behind.
Illustrative outcome
Zero missed conflicts or statutory deadlines across a cycle; faster, evidenced client filings.
Illustrative; final numbers come from your own data.
