Baker Tilly and Ode with Anthropic Launch Initiative to Advance AI-Enabled Client Service
Leading advisory, tax and assurance firm builds governed AI capabilities to support professionals and enhance client service
Today, Baker Tilly and Ode with Anthropic (Ode) announced an initiative to accelerate Baker Tilly’s AI capabilities across its advisory, tax and assurance businesses. As part of this effort, Ode will work with Baker Tilly to design and implement AI-powered systems that support employees in the delivery of world-class client services.
In the world of tax, advisory and audit workflows, professional judgment is essential for the mission-critical business operations of Baker Tilly’s clients, and standard automation tools often fall short of delivering at Baker Tilly’s exceptional standards. Working with Ode, Baker Tilly will develop capabilities that extend beyond traditional automation and standalone productivity tools, integrating systems that apply Baker Tilly’s methodologies, knowledge and expertise in governed ways.
“The future of professional services will be shaped by firms that successfully combine AI with deep domain expertise,” said Chris Taylor, CEO of Ode. “Baker Tilly is building AI systems around the expertise of its professionals to enhance the client experience.”
