Once you have your response, you can easily copy it out of Ask Blue J into another document to get to a starting point faster than ever.

Ask Blue J’s new conversational capabilities pair with the most powerful version of our algorithm yet, Version 11, taking the quality of the answers and the relevant sources that support each answer to the next level. Combined with Ask Blue J’s unique recommendation algorithm that leverages Blue J’s tax knowledge graph, practitioners across the industry are leaving traditional keyword search tools behind and moving into the new era of conversational tax research.

New Capabilities

Go deeper into your research with follow-up questions.

Ask Blue J remembers the context of your conversation so that when you ask a follow-up question to your initial research question, it will remember your earlier prompts.

For example, suppose the response to your original question references Section 1060. In that case, you can ask the follow-up question “Explain 1060” to expand the scope of research, and you will get an answer that builds on your previous conversation.

Ask clarifying questions for more detail.

If the initial response provided by Ask Blue J is a summary and you want to go deeper, simply Ask Blue J to explain in more detail. 

For example, if you start with the question, “What are the rules for determining the allocation of consideration received in an applicable asset acquisition?” you can ask a follow-up question, “Provide more detail on the rules for allocation of consideration” to get a more detailed response to your initial question.

Rapidly rewrite an answer into a draft email or memo.

Ask Blue J’s conversational capabilities unlocks rapid drafting capabilities unlike any other research tool. Supercharge your efficiency with prompts to modify and tweak the output to precisely what you want.

For example, simply Ask Blue J to “Summarize the above as a client email,” and it will modify the response to your instructions.
