# Fiscly Review Australian AI tax assistant and accountant directory that answers plain-English tax questions and connects users with local TPB-registered ## Editor's Score: 58/100 Capability scores 13 because the AI assistant is a generic third-party support chatbot (Miyai.ai) layered over Australian tax topics, with no ATO integration, no lodgement capability, and no bookkeeping or payroll features that every named competitor in the broader accounting software category offers. Ease of use scores 20 because the product is genuinely frictionless for consumers: no sign-up, plain-English input, and a clean directory with specialty and location filters. Value scores 16 because the consumer side is free and the firm listing tiers (A$40/month Claimed, A$99/month Boost per region) are priced modestly, but checkout was not yet live at review time, which limits the value that can actually be realised. Delivery scores 9 because there is no independent user sentiment, no press coverage, the underlying AI engine is a generic customer-support platform rather than a purpose-built tax tool, and the paid subscription checkout was listed as 'opens soon', meaning the product's core monetisation promise is not yet fulfilled. ## Pros - Completely free for consumers: no account required to ask tax questions or browse the accountant directory. - Covers all eight Australian states and territories with TPB-registered firms filterable by specialty, including niche areas like SMSF, crypto tax, and medical professionals. - Honest, prominent disclaimer on every AI answer that the information is general only, reducing the risk of users acting on unverified advice. ## Cons - The AI assistant runs on Miyai.ai, a generic third-party customer-support platform, not a purpose-built Australian tax reasoning engine, which means it cannot handle complex or entity-specific scenarios with any reliability. - No ATO integration, no BAS lodgement, no payroll, and no bookkeeping: the tool does none of the actual compliance work that Australian small businesses need done. - The paid accountant listing checkout was listed as 'opens soon' at the time of review, meaning firms cannot yet subscribe to Claimed or Boost tiers through the site. ## Pricing Freemium. A free tier is available. - Free Listing: A$0 - Claimed: A$40/month inc. GST - Boost: A$99/month inc. GST per region Pricing reflects what we saw at the time of review (2026-11).

Directory: https://aitoolseekers.com This review: https://aitoolseekers.com/tools/fiscly Methodology: https://aitoolseekers.com/how-verification-works ## Verdict Fiscly suits Australians who want a fast, free first answer to a GST, BAS, or sole-trader tax question before deciding whether to hire a professional. The AI assistant is a general-purpose Q&A layer built on a third-party model (Miyai.ai), not a purpose-built tax engine, so it cannot lodge anything or connect to ATO systems the way dedicated compliance tools can. Anyone needing actual tax lodgement, bookkeeping software, or ongoing advisory should skip the AI side entirely and go straight to the accountant directory, or use a full accounting platform instead. Best for: Australians wanting a free, instant first answer to a tax or accounting question before engaging a professional. Not for: Anyone needing actual tax lodgement, bookkeeping software, payroll, or ATO-integrated compliance tools. ## Overview Fiscly is an Australian web platform with two distinct sides: a free AI tax Q&A assistant for consumers, and a paid listing directory for accounting firms. The consumer side lets anyone type a plain-English question about GST, BAS, deductions, sole-trader tax, or small-business compliance and receive an instant AI-generated answer. The firm side is a searchable directory of TPB-registered tax agents and accountants, filterable by state and territory across all eight Australian jurisdictions. The AI assistant is powered by Miyai.ai, a third-party customer-support AI layer, rather than a proprietary tax reasoning engine. Every answer carries a disclaimer that the information is for general purposes only and may not apply to the user's exact situation. That is an honest and legally necessary caveat, but it also defines the ceiling: Fiscly answers questions, it does not prepare returns, lodge BAS statements, or integrate with the ATO. For accounting firms, Fiscly offers three listing tiers. A free listing gives basic directory presence. The Claimed tier at A$40/month (inc. GST) adds verified status and enhanced profile features. The Boost tier at A$99/month (inc. GST) per region adds suburb and region page placement on top of a Claimed subscription. The directory already lists firms across NSW, VIC, QLD, WA, SA, TAS, ACT, and NT, with specialties ranging from SMSF and crypto tax to medical professionals and startups. The product is genuinely useful as a triage layer: get a quick orientation on a tax topic, then use the directory to find a qualified local firm. What it is not is a replacement for accounting software or a licensed advisor. ## Who should use it Fiscly is a practical starting point for Australian sole traders, property investors, and individuals who have a specific tax question, such as whether a home-office expense is deductible or how BAS reporting works for a new GST registration, and want a free, immediate answer before booking a paid consultation. It is also useful for anyone who has just moved to Australia or started a business and needs a plain-English orientation to the local tax system. Accounting firms with a limited marketing budget may find the free listing worthwhile for directory visibility, and the A$40/month Claimed tier reasonable for a verified profile. Anyone who needs to actually prepare and lodge tax returns, run payroll, reconcile bank accounts, or connect directly to ATO systems should look elsewhere. For those users, a full accounting platform is the right tool, not a Q&A assistant. Within this directory, Leadping is a better fit for service businesses that need AI-assisted lead capture and client communication rather than tax guidance. ## FAQ Q: Is Fiscly free to use for tax questions? A: Yes. The AI tax Q&A assistant and the accountant directory are both free for consumers, with no account or subscription required. Q: Can Fiscly lodge my BAS or tax return? A: No. Fiscly provides general information only and has no ATO integration. It cannot prepare, lodge, or submit any tax documents on your behalf. Q: How much does it cost for an accounting firm to get a verified listing? A: The Claimed tier costs A$40/month (inc. GST). Adding the Boost tier for suburb and region page placement costs an additional A$99/month (inc. GST) per region, and requires an active Claimed subscription. Note that checkout was listed as opening soon at the time of this review. Q: Which Australian states and territories does the directory cover? A: Fiscly lists firms across all eight jurisdictions: NSW, VIC, QLD, WA, SA, TAS, ACT, and NT, with major cities including Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane, and Canberra. Q: What AI technology powers the Fiscly assistant? A: The assistant is built on Miyai.ai, a third-party AI customer-support platform. It is not a proprietary Australian tax reasoning engine, and every answer includes a disclaimer that the information is general only. Q: Does Fiscly verify the accountants listed in its directory? A: Firms in the directory are noted as TPB-registered tax agents where applicable. The Claimed tier adds a 'Verified by Fiscly' badge, but the free listing does not carry that verification mark.
