At TaxHacker, we use artificial intelligence ("AI") to power the core features of our platform. This document outlines how and why we use AI technologies, what data is processed, and how it may affect you as a user.

1. Purpose of AI in TaxHacker

AI is essential to the TaxHacker experience. It is used for:

• Optical Character Recognition (OCR) of scanned invoices and receipts
• Automatic categorization and tagging of financial transactions
• Summarization of expenses and vendor descriptions
• Smart field population and autofill within forms
• Custom prompt-driven workflows

All AI-generated content is visible directly in the user interface and may be applied to your transactions, projects, and reports.

2. AI Providers and Models

Our cloud-hosted version uses models provided by OpenAI, including:

• gpt-4o-mini and gpt-4.1-mini

In the self-hosted version, users may choose to connect their own language models or AI backends. We do not monitor or vet these setups and assume no responsibility for their output.

3. Data Sent for AI Processing

To deliver AI-powered features, we send selected user data to OpenAI's API, including:

• Uploaded documents (e.g., receipts, invoices)
• Associated transaction metadata and user-provided fields
• Historical context of past transactions (if required for analysis)

⚠️ Note: This data is not anonymized or redacted before transmission. By using TaxHacker, you acknowledge and consent to this transfer.

We store structured outputs from the AI (e.g., parsed fields, categorization) in your account for future use. We do not store raw AI prompts or responses beyond what's necessary to populate your data.

4. Human Involvement

We do not manually review AI-generated content. There is currently no mechanism for human review, error flagging, or corrections.

Users are solely responsible for verifying the accuracy of AI-processed outputs before using them for financial or reporting purposes.

5. Opt-Out and Core Dependency

AI processing is a fundamental component of TaxHacker and cannot be disabled. If you do not consent to your data being processed via AI, you should not use the platform.

6. Automated Decision-Making

Our AI systems do not make binding legal or financial decisions on your behalf. However, they may suggest categories, values, or summaries based on the data you provide.

While these outputs may influence how your data is structured or interpreted, they are not used to make automated decisions with legal or significant effects as defined under GDPR Article 22.

7. Risks and Limitations

AI-generated outputs are probabilistic and may contain errors, omissions, or misinterpretations. We make no guarantees of accuracy, completeness, or suitability for tax, legal, or financial purposes.

⚠️ Important: TaxHacker is not a substitute for a certified accountant, tax advisor, or legal counsel. Use at your own risk.
