Overview

Founded in January 2024, Rivet Tax applies artificial-intelligence workflows to the traditionally manual world of tax preparation. Its core platform ingests every client email, Slack message, text, Zoom transcript, and document upload into a searchable, AI-driven database so preparers can avoid repetitive questions and rapidly assemble returns. The company operates on a flat-fee model and now serves 600 clients that range from complex individual filers to roughly 100 large enterprises, including two with $30 billion valuations. Rivet employs 44 people across the United States and India, where 30 tax preparers handle a portion of the workload. Management’s near-term product roadmap targets automating up to 80 percent of each return at the click of a button, leaving human staff to review and finalize filings. Co-founders Nick Abouzeid (CEO) and Kyle Christenson (Head of Tax and former IRS auditor) emphasize that Rivet will remain independent while continuing to scale both its engineering team and go-to-market efforts. Revenue figures have not been disclosed.
