We're rebuilding the back office of the tax profession.
Petal is built by Noctworks, a small team that believes the best of the profession is its judgment, and the worst of it is the busywork that buries it.
Tax and accounting work has never been more in demand, and the people who do it have never been more stretched. The answer can’t be longer nights.
We started Petal to give firms a tireless, careful colleague: one that reads every source, drafts with citations, reconciles the books, and chases the missing documents, overnight, so the morning opens with decisions instead of data entry.
We’re a research-driven team building the definitive AI for tax, accounting, and audit. We work in the open with a small cohort of founding firms, and we ship what they need next.
How we work
Judgment first
The machine does the volume. The preparer makes the calls. We design every flow to keep it that way.
Cited or it didn't happen
Nothing leaves Petal without a source. If we can't show our work, we don't ship the answer.
Built with firms
Every feature starts with a real practice and a real return. Founding firms shape what we build.
