DAIS Technology launched Alx., an AI agent that turns plain-English questions into reports for accounting firms, the company announced on October 27, 2026. The launch was detailed in a release distributed by 24-7 Press Release. Alx. draws on data from supported practice-management systems.
How Alx. Builds Reports From Questions
A partner enters a request in ordinary language, and Alx. retrieves the relevant information and produces a report for review. Users can generate reports, save them for reuse and schedule recurring reports. The initial focus is helping firm leaders understand their firm's operations and performance through data already held in their business systems.
DAIS said the agent is built around firms' existing technology rather than replacing it. "We're excited to launch Alx., making it easy for accounting firm leaders to access data from separate systems in one AI chat interface," said Matt Meehan, CEO, in the release. Accounting firms can request a demonstration by contacting the company; the release says demonstrations let firms explore reporting priorities and compatibility with their existing data sources. DAIS develops AI systems for businesses where data security, regulatory requirements and operational accuracy are essential, according to the release.
DAIS Technology's Funding and Scale
DAIS Technology was founded in 2016 and is headquartered in Chicago, according to akta.pro company records. The same records list total funding of $14 million across two rounds: $5 million in November 2016 and $9 million in August 2018. The records give a headcount range of 51-100 and a revenue estimate of $10 million-$25 million.
