Why not just use ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini?

Those are flexible, general-purpose assistants. AIFormula is narrower by design: the professional context, source corpus, controlled skills, and review package are already built into the workflow.

It complements general AI when the work needs to be grounded, repeatable, and ready for professional review.

Canadian tax · Canada — Accounting

Does TOSI apply to dividends paid to my client's 22-year-old who works 15 hours a week in the family business?

Sample from a live research workflow

TOSI generally applies to dividends paid from a private corporation to a related adult, but not to an excluded amount — including income from an excluded business the individual is actively engaged in on a regular, continuous, and substantial basis1. The Act deems that test met when the person works an average of 20 or more hours per week2. At 15 hours a week the child falls short of that bright line, so the dividend isn't automatically excluded — you'd need to support "actively engaged" on the specific facts1.

2Income Tax Act — s. 120.4(1.1)(a)

…the individual is deemed to be actively engaged on a regular, continuous and substantial basis … if the individual works … an average of at least 20 hours per week …

Common questions

The important distinction: this is not an open-ended action agent. It is grounded research plus a catalog of bounded, reviewable skills.

How is AIFormula different from ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini?

ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini are flexible general-purpose assistants. AIFormula is configured for specific professions: it uses a curated primary-source corpus, can route supported requests into bounded first-party skills, packages outputs with review evidence, and—where available—estimates substantive professional learning activity. It is designed for professional workflows, not to replace every general AI use case.

What is AIFormula?

AIFormula is a profession-specific AI workbench. It combines cited primary-source research with first-party skills that can inspect files, run controlled calculations, prepare workpapers, and draft professional documents for review.

What is a skill?

A skill is a specialized workflow with known inputs and reviewable outputs—for example, reconciling bank data to the general ledger, preparing a GST/HST workpaper, or running an engineering calculation worksheet. Skills are built and controlled by LearnFormula; they are not arbitrary third-party plugins.

Do I have to choose the right skill myself?

No. Ask normally or attach a supported file and the assistant can select an appropriate skill from your prompt and file profile. You can also choose a skill directly when you want a specific workflow.

Does AI perform the calculations?

AI can help route the request and explain the result, but supported calculations and workbook writes run through controlled server-side skill logic. The output records assumptions, warnings, mappings, and row-level trace details so a professional can review the work.

What happens to uploaded files?

Eligible file skills accept up to two CSV or XLSX files, with limits of 10 MB, 50,000 rows, and 20 sheets per file. Uploads remain private to the authenticated user and market, are not added to the research corpus, and expire after 30 days.

Can this activity count toward professional development hours?

In eligible markets, self-directed research may qualify depending on your professional body, role, relevance, and supporting evidence. The assistant suggests an activity time, then you confirm the time actually spent, choose your body's category, and record a learning outcome before anything enters your CPD log.

Does every market have the same skills and sources?

No. Each assistant has its own profession-specific source corpus, skill catalog, terminology, and professional-development rules. The market directory below shows which capabilities are available in each live assistant.

Can I rely on the output as professional advice?

AIFormula is decision support, not a replacement for professional judgment. Verify cited sources, assumptions, calculations, and generated files before using them in advice, filings, designs, or decisions.

AIFormula

AIFormula provides research and workflow assistance, not professional advice. Always verify sources, assumptions, calculations, and generated files before relying on them.
