We help innovative companies claim R&D Tax Credits.
We map out our clients’ R&D opportunity and create a personalized R&D tax credit program.
We are A Talented Group of Go-Getters.
Our team is a mix of CPAs*, engineers, strategists, and advocates for our clients. We believe in claiming what is rightfully due to our clients and what is true R&D and never cross the line. We are dealing with your hard-earned tax dollars and we know that trusting us with your money is no small undertaking.
That is why we place such a high importance on ethics, integrity, transparency, and diligence at indago. We know that a short-term gain can be a long-term pain, and that is why we act by the book on every project. It is always our goal to maximize your credit amounts to the full extent, but will only do so in accordance with the information available to sustain them for the long-run.
Indago stands for accuracy, legitimacy, efficiency, and timeliness.
We understand the pains of CPAs and businesses’ busy schedules and deadlines, and we will not add to that pressure. We know time to allocate any time outside your core business is costly, so we make sure you are always coming out ahead with our effective means of generating R&D credits.
What is our work product?
It is one product: An R&D Tax Credit Study.
It is made up of two components:
1Valuable Credit Calculations. We calculate your federal (and state if needed) credits and forms that your tax preparer will include on your business’s annual tax filing. We walk your CPA through the process to ensure they are properly placed on your return.
2Comprehensive Report. We build out a report that contains impeccable documentation on your business and substantiation of every activity and your business is claiming. You hold on to this for record-keeping.
What sets us apart?
Quality
We follow the IRS’ Information Document Request (IDR) to a T, ensuring our work product is audit-ready like an insurance package. On average, we find and substantiate 50% more credits than other firms. Why? Because we care about learning about your business and what you are actually performing day after day. We maximize what our clients are due — we work up unto the line and never cross it.
Efficiency
An average Indago study takes 4-6 weeks to complete. We develop a custom work plan to coincide with your timeline and needs, and promise that a delay will never be on our end. Our clients are so confident in our skill set and work product because we only claim what is valid and true R&D.
Price
We cost an average 33% less than our competitors. How? Indago has created a proprietary methodology to capture and substantiate credits that is competitive and still of the utmost quality. We charge a percentage of the credits generated and only bill at the completion of the project with the delivery of report and calculations for filing.
Expertise
We know that choosing the correct consulting firm for your businesses needs can be overwhelming. We are positioned to identify, track, document, secure, and defend our clients’ R&D investments with confidence and assurance. We are a tax consulting firm that aims to be a trusted advisor like your CPA. That is why we bring our clients’ CPAs into the loop regardless of whether we were referred by them.
*INDAGO IS NOT A CPA FIRM.
We drive 90% of our business through CPA referrals. Why? Because 99% of the time the R&D Tax Credit is outside the scope of a CPA’s service offerings. We work as an extension of their business and your accounting department. Indago is the group that you will want to partner with for the long run.
