In this episode, I break down what AI agents actually mean for accounting firms after hands on testing with Claude Cowork and OpenClaw, including real bookkeeping and tax experiments that changed my perspective. I cover what is possible today, where the security boundaries still are, and why the pace of change matters. Then I run through a Niche of the Week on high end custom jewelry designers and close with a mailbag on AI use cases, pricing tiers, starting a firm, and managing career decisions in an AI driven world.
