What is Alx. by DAIS?

Alx. by DAIS is a conversational reporting agent for accounting firm leaders. DAIS calls it a CCH reporting agent: you ask a question in plain English, such as WIP by partner or balances over 60 days past due, review the proposed report plan, refine it and save the report to rerun later. It adds a reporting layer around existing systems and does not replace CCH.

Who it's for

Accounting firm leadership and the teams supporting them, including managing partners, CEOs, CFOs, COOs, practice leaders and operations or reporting leaders.

Key features

  • Plain-English report requests, with a proposed report plan to review and approve before it runs
  • Refine a report with follow-up questions: add a column, narrow to one client or change the period
  • Save a report definition (columns, filters, sorting) and rerun it for a new period; saving and scheduling are separate actions
  • Example starting reports: work in progress by partner, overdue receivables, billable hours by staff and billed realization
  • CSV export of report results
  • Demo and pilot approach: DAIS reviews the firm's systems, fields and access requirements, then agrees a focused pilot on one report
  • DAIS states no long-term contracts and SOC 2 Type II (per its website)

Integrations

  • Microsoft 365

DAIS lists the CCH ecosystem, Microsoft 365, cloud data, business and financial software and cloud ERP as data source types, and confirms fit with each firm's systems before a pilot.

Recent updates

  • : DAIS launched Alx., an AI agent that turns accounting firm data into reports through plain-English chat, aimed at firm leaders who need WIP, receivables, billable hours and realization views without building reports by hand. [3]
