Are AI tools like ChatGPT actually useful for CA work? Real experiences wanted

AI is excellent for high-volume, low-judgment tasks like drafting and initial data cleaning. However, for high-stakes advisory and litigation, it remains a "co-pilot" that requires constant supervision by a qualified professional.

That's really helpful to hear. When you say document collection is painful is it more about clients being slow to send things, or is it about organizing and verifying what they send once it arrives?

I have been using https://www.cntrlledger.com/ to automate lot of manual tasks that CA office perofrm using AI. Examples like convert credit card statement to Tally, draft replies to GST notices, Forensic scrutiny.

Update: Since posting this, I actually built an AI-powered tool specifically 
for one CA pain point - GST invoice validation for e-commerce clients.

The problem: E-commerce seller clients upload invoices to Amazon/Flipkart, 
get payment holds due to GST errors, panic and call you at 11 PM.

The AI solution: Pre-validation tool that checks 11 GST rules in 60 seconds 
before they upload. Catches CGST vs IGST errors, calculation mistakes, etc.

InvoiceCheck.in - Your clients can self-check (saves them holds, saves you 
reactive firefighting). ₹99/check or white-label for CA firms.

This is one example where AI actually saves CAs time vs replacing them.

Anyone else building AI tools for specific CA workflows? Would love to hear.
