Challenge #3 - Build Tara Engine, the AI Platform for Tax Advisory
The Challenge
German tax consultants lose half their time chasing receipts, spreadsheets, and statutory deadlines. We’re building the Tara Engine: a central, deterministic platform that computes "what is missing, from whom, by when" in real time, backed by an embedded Human-in-the-Loop AI document engine and live DATEV integration.
Tara Services UG is hiring 3 student developers to build and ship the core platform.
