Meet TaxHero AI: Making Startup Taxes Simple (and a Lot Less Stressful)

Taxes are a nightmare for most startup founders.
Deadlines sneak up. IRS forms sound like alphabet soup.
And Delaware? They’ll happily fine you while you’re still trying to get your first customer.

At Richie AI, we’ve spent years building tools to make complex financial workflows easier.
Now we’re taking that same approach to taxes with TaxHero AI - taxhero.vc 

🚀 Why We Built TaxHero AI

Startups run lean.
You don’t have a CFO, you don’t have time to learn tax code, and you definitely don’t want to blow $10K on an accountant for a $0-revenue company.

We kept seeing the same founder pain points:

• “I missed a deadline and got hit with penalties.”

• “I didn’t even know what forms I was supposed to file.”

• “CPAs talk to me like I’m Google, not a 3-person startup.”

So we asked: What if there was a tool that spoke founder, not accountant, and handled the tax mess automatically?

That’s TaxHero AI.

🧠 What TaxHero AI Does

Powered by Richie AI, TaxHero AI helps early-stage startups stay compliant without the chaos.

Here’s what it handles for you:

• 🗓 Tracks every deadline: IRS, Delaware, 83(b), 1099s, all in one place

• ✅ Reminds you before it’s too late: no more “oops” penalties

• 🤖 AI reviews your filings: catches missing forms and suggests fixes

• 💸 Finds deductions you’re missing: software, R&D, home office, all the small things that add up

Think of it as your AI-powered tax co-pilot, built specifically for founders.

🔹 Why Founders Love It

• Founder-friendly language: No accounting jargon, just clear steps

• Early-stage pricing: Affordable for pre-revenue startups

• Peace of mind: You’ll know exactly what’s due, and when

It’s not just a tool. It’s that sense of “okay, I’ve got this” when tax season rolls around.

🛠 Built on Richie AI

TaxHero AI runs on the same underlying tech that powers Richie AI’s financial tools,
meaning it’s designed with automation, AI-driven checks, and scalability in mind.

For founders, that means:

• Less time in spreadsheets

• Fewer expensive mistakes

• More energy to focus on actually building your startup

🧩 Who It’s For

• Delaware C-Corps (pre-seed, seed, early revenue)

• Foreign founders with U.S. startups

• Solo founders who don’t want to deal with the IRS

• Any startup that hates surprise penalties

🤝 The Richie AI Vision
