Cause of death: the autopsy
A venture-backed rival, ClaimKit, already sells exactly this in Australia: GitHub, Jira, Linear, Notion and Xero records turned into claim documents with an ex-KPMG review, for 10% of the credit, and reports 60+ customers. Paid claim help needs Tax Practitioners Board registration, and buyers pay once a year, about 6 months out. Rescored from 18 to 11 out of 25.

The report left no way back.
