What it is
ProConnect Tax is cloud-based professional tax preparation software for accounting firms, available on web and Windows. SmartReturn builds low- to medium-complexity 1040 returns from imported data, while AI tools support document extraction, assisted import and review, and Smart Navigation through return preparation. The product lists more than 7,200 forms and over 21,000 diagnostics. Firms can move bookkeeping information from QuickBooks Accountant into ProConnect or export it, and the software powers Tax Prep in Intuit Accountant Suite. Integrations include SmartVault, Pay-by-Refund, and Quick Employer Forms. It supports federal and state e-file, amended returns, self-employed and rental income, prior-year imports, and business entities including partnerships, S corporations, C corporations, estates, trusts, nonprofits, and gift tax. Individual returns cost $82.46, paid once, business returns $97.48, paid once, and User Access costs $210 a year. Annual plans serve firms from smaller practices to multi-preparer teams.
