@MLom  "I was wondering if Intuit is collaborating with CPAs or potentially competing with them."

While QB is still technically accounting software, they do hire tax and accounting professionals for customer support.

Given that their push towards requiring the contact information of employees is obviously an attempt at data mining and marketing to our clients and employees directly, they are also trying to throw their accountant customers under the bus.

So, the answer is basically both.

That said, QB is absolutely also trying to shift towards not involving accountants in the process at all.

I'm sure you've noticed their push towards AI lately.
