R&D Tax Claim Assistant

Clairvynt’s R&D Tax Claim Assistant helps classify engineering work against R&D tax frameworks and generate structured claim outputs, linking project data to HMRC-aligned evidence.

What it does

The tool ingests project and task data, then applies domain-specific logic based on tax and advisory guidance to highlight which activities are likely to qualify as R&D. It keeps the connection between claims and the underlying engineering work.

Who it is for

  • Engineering-led organisations claiming R&D tax relief.
  • Finance and tax teams working with technical leads.
  • Advisors who need clearer, structured input from delivery teams.

Where it helps first

  • Large engineering projects with mixed qualifying and non-qualifying work.
  • Projects where evidence is scattered across systems and documents.
  • Annual R&D claim cycles with repeated data-wrangling effort.

The assistant focuses on traceability and structure, not on replacing professional tax advice.

Inputs

  • Project and task-level time or cost data.
  • High-level descriptions of engineering activities.
  • Existing tax guidance and advisory rules agreed with your partners.

Outputs

  • Structured views of potentially qualifying activities.
  • Audit-friendly links between claims and underlying work.
  • Exportable data for advisors and internal reporting.

Why it matters

  • Reduce manual filtering of hours and tasks.
  • Increase consistency across claim cycles.
  • Make it easier to explain and defend claims to stakeholders.
