The bottom line

Roughly 90% of the work in Tax Preparers is information-shaped — already within reach of AI delivery. The question here is not whether it shifts, but which tasks go first and who staffs the residual.

Why: All 30 tools associated with this role fall into UNSPSC segment 43 (IT/software), which carries a strong digital prior (0.85). This is heavily reinforced by top work activities like 'Working with Computers' (4.67) and 'Processing Information' (4.24), and a work context dominated by 'Spend Time Sitting' (4.45) and 'E-Mail' (4.43). The work is pure information processing.

Business-as-Code

Read as an executable program — the work decomposed into Code, Generative, Agentic, and Human.

Autonomous Agents as digital employees

Which of this work becomes digital labor — performed under typed authority, promoted to autonomy on track record.

Tax Preparers is linked from 1 entity via `performedBy` — a real edge on the economy graph, surfaced here so the claim stays grounded in data rather than assertion.

Headless SaaS for Agents

The software here going agent-consumable — where the API, not the UI, becomes the way the work gets done.

Tax Preparers uses 3 tools today. As each gains an agent-consumable surface (API / MCP / SDK), the human UI stops being the only way in — and the work routes straight to an agent.
