Platform Features

Built to Handle Tax Season at Scale

Every feature in Lunar was designed with one goal: eliminate the hours your team wastes on manual data entry while keeping client data secure.

Core Technology

3-Tier AI Extraction Engine

Lunar doesn't rely on a single AI model. Our extraction pipeline uses three complementary approaches to achieve near-perfect accuracy on every document type:

  • Tier 1: Purpose-built AI models -- optimized specifically for IRS form layouts.
  • Tier 2: Layout analysis with field-matching rules -- catches edge cases and non-standard formatting.
  • Tier 3: Advanced AI fallback -- handles the most challenging documents with contextual understanding.

Every field receives a confidence score. Your team only touches what needs attention.

Review Only What Matters

Not every field needs human eyes. Lunar's confidence system sorts extracted data into three categories:

Auto-Accepted
Fields with 95%+ confidence pass through automatically. No action needed.
Flagged for Review
Fields between 70-95% confidence are highlighted for quick verification.
Manual Entry
Fields below 70% confidence are marked for manual input. These are rare.

The result: your reviewers spend their time on judgment calls, not re-checking obvious data.

Confidence Distribution
Auto-Accepted 82%
Flagged for Review 15%
Manual Entry 3%

Your Firm, Your Rules

Invite preparers and reviewers with role-based access. Admins control who can review, who can export, and who can manage the firm.

Admin
Full control over firm settings, billing, team members, and data retention policies.
Preparer
Upload documents, view extractions, submit data for review. Cannot export.
Reviewer
Review flagged fields, approve extractions, trigger exports to tax software.

SSO integration means your team logs in with existing credentials. MFA adds an extra layer of protection.

Every Action, Logged and Encrypted

Lunar maintains an immutable audit trail for every operation in the system. When the IRS or your internal compliance team asks "who did what, and when?" -- you'll have the answer.

  • Document uploads and deletions
  • AI extraction runs and results
  • Human review decisions and overrides
  • Export operations and destinations
  • Team member additions, removals, and role changes
  • Login events and access patterns

Audit logs are encrypted at rest, tamper-evident, and retained for your configured retention period (up to 7 years).
