CPA2GO: Revolutionizing Digital Accounting Consultations

A cross-platform app that connects clients and CPAs by encrypted video in minutes

In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, CPA2GO discerned a glaring gap.

The challenge

As users increasingly turned to the web for instantaneous tax and accounting guidance, most solutions fell short.

Tax and accounting questions rarely wait for office hours, but the alternatives were a phone tree or an email thread. CPA2GO needed one product that a first-time user could open on a phone during a business trip and be face to face with a licensed CPA in minutes — with the same session working on desktop, on weak hotel Wi-Fi, and with documents and payment handled inside the call.

Our solution

In partnership with LA NPDT, CPA2GO’s vision began taking form. The project’s ambition went beyond just another mobile app—it aimed for a comprehensive trinity: bespoke solutions tailored for iOS, Android, and the web.

At its core, the objective was twofold: meld contemporary communication tools while ensuring users across the globe could effortlessly tap into CPA services.

Harnessing the prowess of React Native ensured a uniform experience across devices. Adding Agora.io into the mix offered encrypted, real-time communication—a cornerstone for secure and trustworthy financial consultations. This integration not only accelerated development but also drove down costs, presenting a win-win scenario.

The result

From a mere concept to a groundbreaking platform, CPA2GO stood out as a trailblazer. It ensured users could access pivotal accounting advice unhindered, be it amidst a bustling metro or from the tranquillity of their homes. On the flip side, CPA firms basked in optimized efficiency, reduced downtime, and a fresh influx of clientele. Universally acclaimed, CPA2GO isn’t just another platform—it’s the new gold standard in flexible accounting consultations.

The genius behind CPA2GO wasn’t just about digitalizing a service—it was about addressing a fundamental human need for immediate and reliable guidance in an often intricate financial landscape. As the world faced unprecedented challenges, particularly during the COVID pandemic, this platform shone as a beacon of resilience and adaptability. People confined to their homes or unable to attend physical meetings still had a channel to navigate their financial queries without skipping a beat. CPA2GO, in essence, reshaped the CPA-client relationship, making it more robust, adaptive, and timely than ever before.
