0sEach answer runs four steps
- Retrieve candidate HMRC paragraphs
- Select the relevant paragraphs
- Draft an answer, cited sentence by sentence
- Verify every claim against its source
This usually takes 30 to 50 seconds, most of it the claim-by-claim verification.
v0.2 covers UK income tax on employment income only:
- Personal allowance, taper, basic / higher / additional rates
- Benefits in kind (cars, accommodation, vouchers, loans)
- Travel and subsistence expenses
- Salary sacrifice and optional remuneration
- Pensions, termination payments, social security benefits
Too many claims would be unverified — we won't show an answer rather than guess.
