Nothing sensitive ever leaves your desk Works in ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini Built around Circular 230 and the FTC Safeguards Rule

Brackets stay blank in the AI tool. No client figures, ever.

Try it in ChatGPT right now, then decide.

You didn’t get your CPA to send the third “still need your 1099s” reminder.

But that’s March. The same six clients, the same missing documents, the same deadline. Plain-English questions about things that aren’t plain. Invoices that need a nudge. The client who missed the date and needs a kind, firm answer.

The firm consultant sold you a client portal to end the chasing. They never log in. The $4,000 “firm of the future” program never wrote one reminder for you. And client figures can’t go anywhere near an AI tool, so you’ve mostly left it alone.

Shortcut Kit does the writing. You do the accounting.

Every prompt is built for a small firm, organized by the task you're avoiding, and uses placeholders so no client identifier, figure, or return detail ever leaves your desk. Paste the prompt, fill in the blanks, send.

01

Onboarding and engagement

Welcome emails, engagement letter cover notes, what-to-expect, secure portal instructions.

02

Document collection

First asks, gentle chases, final chases, organizer explainers, 'what counts as a receipt.'

03

Tax season communications

Deadline reminders, extension explainers, 'we filed' confirmations, estimated payment notes.

04

Plain-English explainers

Estimated taxes, deductions in general terms, entity types, bookkeeping basics. No advice on a specific return.

05

Billing and collections

Invoice cover notes, late-payment nudges, retainer explainers, scope-change conversations.

06

Hard conversations

Late clients, scope creep, disengagement letters, the IRS-notice calm-down email.

07

Reviews and referrals

Review requests, responses that never confirm a client relationship, referral asks.

08

Practice operations

Staff onboarding, season-prep SOPs, out-of-office, weekly firm summary.

Three ways to use it this week

1

Pick the task you hate most

The kit is organized by task, not by topic. Go straight to the one on your desk.

2

Paste the prompt, fill the brackets

Works in ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini. Brackets keep client data out of the box.

3

Read it once, send it, move on

You're the credentialed professional. The AI wrote the first draft. Thirty seconds instead of fifteen minutes.

Who it's for

Accountants, bookkeepers, EAs and tax preparers at small firms who are done being the reminder department. Not for software people, not for anyone looking for a 10-hour course.

What it's not

It’s not a $4,000 firm-growth program or another portal. It's not a chatbot. It won't give tax advice on a specific return, sign off on numbers, or touch client data. A credentialed professional reviews everything. That's the point.

Questions

Which AI tool do I need?

Any of them. ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini, and the free versions work fine.

Is it safe with client information?

You never put client information in. Every prompt uses blanks like [FIRST NAME], and you add the real details in your own email. The kit includes a one-page Never Paste This sheet built around IRS Circular 230 and the FTC Safeguards Rule. No prompt gives tax advice for a specific situation.

Does it work for bookkeepers and tax preparers?

Yes. It's written for small accounting, bookkeeping and tax practices, with sections for each part of the year.

I'm not good with AI. Will I be able to use it?

If you can copy and paste, yes. Pick the task, paste the prompt, fill in the blanks.

Can my staff use it?

Each kit is for one person. Add the Team license at checkout to cover up to 5 people, including your staff accountants and admins.

How do I get it?

Your download page opens the moment you pay, and the same link arrives by email within the hour. It’s a PDF that works on any device.

Can I get a refund?

All sales are final, including accidental or duplicate purchases. That’s why you can see sample pages and try a prompt free before you buy.
