The story

Gelt was founded as a technology-enabled tax company positioning itself against traditional CPAs by offering proactive, personalized tax strategy and compliance services. The platform has evolved from a services-first model toward a software-led approach, embedding AI-driven tax projections, workflow automation, and a document vault into a unified platform. Its core differentiator is combining expert advice with proprietary technology to serve HNWIs and SMBs who need year-round tax optimization rather than once-a-year filing.
