- Assistance with routine tasks – AiDA assists with mundane tasks, enabling professionals to focus on strategic decision-making.
- Focus on quality output – AiDA delivers a safe and fit-for-purpose resource which ensures efficient workflows for clients.
Feedback on AiDA has underscored the demand for tailored, secure AI solutions in professional environments. Danielle Supkis Cheek, VP, Head of Analytics and AI at Caseware International commented, “We recently showcased AiDA to a number of clients beyond our beta phase community at Caseware’s 2024 North American User Group. The response was phenomenal and, in line with our roadmap, we’re excited to continue to enhance AiDA based on user feedback and technological advancements.”
Currently available to Caseware Cloud customers in the United States for early access, AiDA will ultimately be available across the globe and, specifically, in Australia, Canada and Europe later this year. Soon, AiDA will be a core component of all cloud-enabled solutions, across all regions. AiDA’s capabilities are constantly evolving, including better context awareness in document interactions and more extensive support for multilingual queries. AiDA is set to transform how professionals in the accounting and audit fields manage their tasks, offering unparalleled support and efficiency.
