Platform Features

Everything your firm
needs to operate.

VELA covers the full operational lifecycle — from the moment a client inquires to the moment their refund hits.

📋
Return Lifecycle Tracking
Track every return from intake to filed — Document Collection → In Preparation → QA Review → Client Approval → E-Filed → Accepted. Real-time status visible to both preparer and client.
👥
Branded Client Portal
Clients log into a portal that looks like YOUR firm — your name, your colors, your domain. Document upload, return status, payment, and messaging all in one place. Zero VELA branding visible.
📁
Secure Document Vault
Every document — W-2s, 1099s, completed returns, engagement letters — stored with bank-grade encryption. Row-level security means your client data never touches another firm's environment.
💳
Integrated Billing & Payments
Send preparation fee invoices directly from VELA. Clients pay online via card or ACH. Track outstanding balances, payment history, and revenue — all in your dashboard.
Automation Engine
Automated document request reminders, return status notifications, payment reminders, tax deadline alerts, and filing confirmations. Your prep team focuses on returns — the system handles the follow-up.
🏢
Multi-Tenant Architecture
Built from the ground up for multi-tenancy. Every firm gets a dedicated subdomain, isolated database, and custom branding. Service bureaus see all offices. Offices see only their clients.

VELA runs the infrastructure.
