Our Methodology

Transaction-Level Reconciliation

We don't just import CSVs and hope the software gets it right. Every transaction is reviewed by our team to ensure proper classification, accurate cost basis, and correct pairing of related events (like LP deposits and withdrawals).

Our process includes:

  • Manual review of flagged transactions
  • Cross-chain transaction matching
  • Smart contract interaction analysis
  • Historical price verification
  • Duplicate detection and removal

Why Manual Review Matters: DIY software uses automated rules that fail on edge cases. We catch the issues software misses—like wrapped token conversions, bridge transactions, and protocol-specific mechanics—because we understand how these systems actually work.

Documentation & Audit Defense

Every report includes comprehensive documentation showing how we arrived at each number. If you're audited, you'll have detailed transaction logs, cost basis calculations, and explanatory notes that demonstrate good-faith compliance.

What You Get

  • Form 8949 (Sales and Dispositions)
  • Schedule D (Capital Gains Summary)
  • Schedule 1 (Additional Income)
  • Transaction detail report
  • Wallet/exchange summary
  • Cost basis documentation
  • Explanatory notes for complex items
