SARS has AI.
Now you do too.
Defensible answers on South African tax in seconds, with citations you can take to SARS. SilkeAI is an AI research and drafting platform built exclusively on South African tax law: every answer backed by verified citations to the Acts, SARS Interpretation Notes, rulings and case law. In development now. Join the founding practitioner programme.
The problem
You know these situations.
Auto-assessments that are wrong.
Estimated and auto-assessments land with figures that don't match the facts. SARS's systems are fast; disputing them shouldn't be slow.
Research time nobody pays for.
Hours in the Acts, Interpretation Notes and case reports that you can't put on the invoice.
What SilkeAI will do
Cited answers. Drafted responses. Objections drafted to the rules.
Ask, with authority.
Ask a tax question in plain language. Get an answer grounded in the Income Tax Act, VAT Act, Tax Administration Act, Interpretation Notes, rulings and case law, with pinpoint citations you can click and read in the source.
Turn SARS letters into responses.
Upload a verification request, audit findings letter or additional assessment. SilkeAI extracts the issues and drafts a structured, cited response.
Draft objections to the rules.
Grounds for objection and appeal drafted against the TAA dispute rules and deadlines, so they are not bounced as invalid.
Opinions with verified references.
Structured tax opinions: facts, issues, law, application and conclusion, with every quoted authority verified against the source before you ever see it.
Why trust us
Courts have zero tolerance for invented citations. So do we.
South African courts have already seen AI-fabricated authorities. SilkeAI is engineered so that can't happen silently: a closed corpus of SA sources only, deterministic citation verification, a clear distinction between verified quotes and AI summaries, and refusal instead of guessing.
