Your balances, notices, and filing history become plain-language reports. Then we help you plan what to do about them and track it through to the IRS confirming it.
Discovery → Strategy → Execution
Balances, notices, which returns are on file, and what has actually posted — built from your IRS records, not one scary total.
Income, expenses, and ability to pay — what you can realistically afford while you work through the account.
Goals, constraints, and timing — what matters in your life while you work through the account, and what you want to protect first.
See
Returns, balances, penalties, payments, notices, and collection activity — organized by year and issue, not a wall of transcript codes.
Plan
A balance is rarely one event. Brevitax reconstructs the sequence — then helps you compare options that fit what the IRS shows, what you can afford, and what you are trying to protect.
Do and watch
Not everything requires action. Brevitax separates noise from what deserves attention, surfaces practical next steps, and tracks forms, deadlines, and verification as you move.
Keep watching
Filing or paying does not mean the IRS posted it yet. Compare fresh records to your last review so you know what actually changed.
Your files are encrypted and used only to build your account view — never sold.

Brevitax is software that turns your IRS account transcripts into plain-language reports. You see balances, notices, and what changed — for $29/mo, without a firm taking over your case.
Yes, for parts of the product — like plain-language summaries and draft strategy options. Balances and enforcement signals come from parsed IRS records and rules, not guesswork. All outputs are for your review; Brevitax is software, not a law firm, and does not represent you before the IRS.
No. Form 8821 lets us request and view your IRS records; it does not let us represent you or sign on your behalf. Power of attorney (Form 2848) is different — that is what a representative uses to act for you.

No. Brevitax is software for your IRS account — not a law firm and not someone who takes over your case.
