Tax resolution operations platform

Everything your firm runs on one case record.

RESO is the tax resolution operations platform: IRS intelligence, sellable work product, commercial close, implementation, and fee defense — on one governed case record.

Your best work shouldn’t depend on which employee opens the case.

Every trial opens with a complete sample case — transcripts through a defensible record.

First 30 days: explore the full platform on a complete sample case. Card required when you subscribe; subscription billing starts on day 31.

What RESO does

Every product is a projection of reconstructed taxpayer reality.

This page covers role-based economics and adoption. For work products, lifecycle, and platform capabilities, start at the Products hub.

Most professionals price the case
based on what the client tells them.

The client doesn't know what the IRS knows.

Without RESO

You quote based on the client's memory of what they owe

You discover the TFRP after you've already priced the case

You find the expired CSED after you've negotiated a payment plan that includes it

You submit the 433-A before you know the asset exposure risk

You recommend OIC without running the RCP math

You present a strategy built on incomplete information

With RESO

You run the transcripts before the follow-up call

You know the TFRP, the liens, the levies, and the CSEDs before you price anything

You see the 2016 balance expiring in 22 months — and factor it into your strategy

You know whether to file the 433-A or request CNC verbally

You have the OIC RCP calculation before you quote the engagement fee

You walk into every case with the complete picture

THE ECONOMICS

A more repeatable practice is a more profitable practice.

FOR EVERY PROFESSIONAL

The Discovery Fee

Your platform cost$49/month per team member · full platform included
Billed to client as discovery$500 – $1,500
Margin on discovery alone20x – 60x

Before you take a case, charge for the analysis. "We need to review your IRS transcripts and financial picture before we can quote resolution fees." That's standard professional practice. RESO makes it a same-day process instead of a 3-hour one. Don't sell exploratories? The same Discovery closes the implementation engagement on findings — and defends the value after.

FOR SALES REPRESENTATIVES

The Closed Engagement

Your platform cost$49/month per team member · full platform included
Average resolution engagement$3,500 – $7,500
Average commission at 20%$700 – $1,500
Closed cases to cover cost1 closed case typically covers your subscription

You don't need a better pitch. You need the facts in hand before the follow-up call. The difference between "we can probably help you" and a signed client is showing up with Discovery work product that proves you already understand their situation.

FOR EAs & SETTLEMENT OFFICERS

The Protected Reputation

Cost of a strategy errorDisputed fees. Malpractice exposure.
Cost of one bad outcomeClient who paid $5,000 for a plan that failed.
Your platform cost$49/month per team member · full platform included

The CSED you missed. The 433-A that exposed assets you didn't know about. The OIC that got rejected because the RCP was $40,000 higher than you estimated. RESO catches what manual transcript review misses on the cases you run through it.

WHO RUNS A RESO FIRST

Different role. Same advantage.

SALES REPS

Your prospect has been burned before. They've heard "we can help you" from three firms. They're comparing you on price because they have nothing else to compare.

When you call back with Discovery work product that shows exactly what the IRS has on their account, exactly what needs to happen first, and exactly how your firm would sequence it — the conversation changes. You're not pitching anymore. You're presenting.

The work product does the selling. You close the case.

Prospect owes $139,212 across 6 tax years.

Active levy. Passport certified. TFRP assessed.

RESO identifies: OIC at $8,484 — 94% forgiveness.

You present: co-branded Discovery work product with their name on it.

They sign: a $5,000 engagement.

Your cost: $49/month per team member · full platform included.

Your commission: $1,000.

THE DELIVERABLE

Deliver the Work Product

Co-branded Discovery and Strategy work product, preserved on the case record and exported as a client-ready PDF. Present it in the client meeting, bill it as Discovery, and carry it into scope, implementation, and retention.

And after the close, the same case record runs the implementation: program work plans seeded from playbooks, deadlines projected from the parsed IRS ledger onto the firm calendar, and manager escalation when a case stalls. See how the practice runs day to day, or how firms sell and deliver tax relief as one motion.
