LedgerOS columns describe the product as it ships today. Every TaxGPT / TheTaxBook cell and price is marked with the page on TaxGPT / TheTaxBook’s own site it was read from and the day it was read. Where no vendor page could be read, the cell says so rather than guess.

Decades of expert editorial commentary that we cannot replicate at launch. If your firm relies on TheTaxBook's analysis sections rather than direct citations to source material, the trade-off is real.
Answers assembled only from an allow-list of IRS and state authority — so a citation is a real document, not a plausible-looking one — scoped to the jurisdictions in play, saved to the client, and included in the platform you already pay for.
One seat, 18 modules
The reason the price comparison above is not like-for-like: a LedgerOS seat is not a practice-management seat with add-ons available. Every module is in it, at one price, and there is no tier that withholds one.
