Thomson Reuters Launches AI for Tax, Audit, Legal: Streamlining Workflows, Boosting Speed and Accuracy
  • Thomson Reuters unveils agentic AI solutions across Tax, Audit, Accounting, and Legal, introducing ONESOURCE+ and enhanced CoCounsel capabilities to automate complex, multi-step workflows.

  • ONESOURCE+ is framed as an Intelligent Compliance Network unifying tax, trade, legal, and risk tools, including ONESOURCE Sales and Use Tax AI for auto-filing and a 40-60% reduction in prep time, plus ONESOURCE Global Classification AI for faster HS code classification and audit-ready documentation with clear rationales.

  • CoCounsel adds agents like Ready to Review for automated US 1040 prep and will roll out CoCounsel Document Analysis in January 2026 to automate large-scale audits and extract data with cited workpapers, freeing accounting pros for judgment work.

  • Practical Law Drafting Language accelerates drafting by prompting clause locations, cutting navigation time while preserving drafting standards.

  • Real-world impact is highlighted by client anecdotes, such as a partner at a boutique firm reporting significantly faster summaries and timelines.

  • Beta testing is set to expand in the coming months to include more users and capabilities.

  • The approach centers on augmenting human work, reducing brute-force searches while requiring humans to perform critical high-value checks and interpret results.

  • Bulk Document Review enables uploading large document sets and producing organized, sortable results to speed discovery, due diligence, regulatory reviews, and contract analysis.

  • Litigation research is accelerated through access to Westlaw content, using Deep Research, mischaracterization detection, and verified citations to boost accuracy and speed.

  • Beta feature supports high-volume analysis of up to 10,000 documents with structured outputs for faster reviews in litigation discovery and related workflows.

  • Phase 2 will enable repeatable, firm-specific processes that leverage Westlaw, Practical Law, and the firm’s institutional knowledge for consistency.

  • Industry discussion emphasizes practical workarounds to AI context-window limits and differentiating products through workflow customization and reliability rather than claiming exponential AI growth.
