About iqtax
More than one in two people in Switzerland find doing their tax return a chore (56 %, representative YouGov survey 2026). It takes hours every year and often leaves the feeling of having missed deductions. iqtax is the AI-powered digital tax return for Switzerland and the first with a direct interface to the canton. You complete your tax return online in a few steps: answer the onboarding questions, upload your documents, and the AI reads everything, finds the maximum deductions and then creates your finished tax return. Optionally, an eidg. dipl. Treuhandexperte (Swiss certified fiduciary expert) reviews it before it is submitted directly to the tax office with one click.
Our goal: We bring tax knowledge closer to people in Switzerland and simplify the entire process, so everyone can complete their tax return with confidence and without forgetting anything. Afterwards, we show you how to optimise your taxes in the long term and improve your financial situation.
We have been live in the canton of Zurich since March 2026, and hundreds of people have already successfully submitted their tax return with iqtax. We are also currently running a pilot project with PostFinance in the canton of Zurich.
Now we are scaling: more cantons will follow from 2027, and step by step we are bringing iqtax to all of Switzerland. For this, we need you. Behind iqtax is a small team around founder Arbnor Jashari, eidg. dipl. Treuhandexperte. You work close to every topic and also take on tasks from social media, content and operations.
