What does FullSpec actually do for accounting firms?

FullSpec maps the manual processes your team repeats every day and builds automations that handle them without staff intervention. For accounting firms, that often means automating Client Onboarding and Engagement Letters, Compliance Deadline and Job Tracking, and Billing and WIP to Invoice workflows. The result is less time spent on admin and fewer things falling through the cracks during busy season.

Which accounting firm processes can be automated with FullSpec?

The most common processes accounting firms automate through FullSpec are Client Onboarding and Engagement Letters, Client Document and Data Collection, Receivables and Invoice Chasing, and Compliance Deadline and Job Tracking. Time Tracking and Billable Hours and Recurring Workflow Templates are also strong candidates once the core workflows are running. These are the most common starting points for accounting firms on the platform.

How do accounting firms typically get started with FullSpec?

You start with a free discovery session where FullSpec walks through your current workflows and identifies where manual work is slowing your team down. Client Onboarding and Engagement Letters is a frequent entry point because it touches nearly every new client and already has a documented 44 hours per month in time savings for firms on the platform.

What tools does FullSpec work with for accounting firms?

FullSpec builds automations on top of the tools your team already uses, including Google Forms, Google Sheets, Gmail, DocuSign, and Google Drive. Your existing stack stays in place and your team keeps working the same way, with the repetitive steps handled automatically. FullSpec works with any tool that has API access, so if your stack looks different, the automation adapts.

What does it mean to map a process?

You describe how a process works in your business today. FullSpec breaks it into steps, identifies where time is lost, and shows you exactly which parts can be automated.

What do I walk away with?

A complete build plan for your automation, including a visual process map, ROI estimate, delivery timeline, and everything a developer or no-code builder needs to build it. No cost, no obligation.
