Relay does the keying, the tying out, the rebuild every time the figures change — so your time goes to the numbers that don't look right.
Writing
Under the hood
Relay is built across seven layers, from the AI models up to the audit interface, so the work it produces is accurate, reviewable, and safe to use on a real engagement.
Relay is model-agnostic, selecting the best model for each task. The better the models get, the more ambitious the experiences we can build.
The agentic harness is the orchestration engine turning general-purpose LLMs into audit-specific agents. LLMs are necessary but insufficient for audit work.
Native integrations with your audit methodology, engagement software, email, Excel, and more. The aOS operates as part of the firm's ecosystem, not alongside it.
The agent is constantly evolving, learning from current-year and prior-year workbooks in real time while referencing client emails and submitted source documents.
Audit-specific domain knowledge with reference to local and international standards such as IFRS and GAAP, ISA methodology, and Office and Google suite workflows.
Purpose-built surfaces for every audit workflow: drafting, research, preparation, client delivery, and workpaper finalisation. Built from the ground up for audit.
The foundation that makes the aOS enterprise-ready: ethical walls, cross-matter isolation, audit trails, and secure data storage according to your organisation's requirements.
How it works
Your files stay where they are. Relay works in the folder, on your computer.
The folder already on your computer. Relay understands every file.
"Help me plan the procedures. Build the workbook. Use our firm's referencing standards."
Keying in the figures, tying each one back to source, laying out the testing — all of it, saved into the engagement folder.
The keying is done. The judgement is yours.
FAQ
Relay works across the whole engagement rather than one workpaper at a time. When you're working in receivables, it already holds the bank statements, the client's emails about term sheets, the invoices and the open testing workbook to cross-reference. When the client's figures change, everything affected updates.
Relay keeps no client files. Source documents and drafted workbooks are never retained. What we do keep is an encrypted map of the engagement — file metadata, content summaries and how the documents relate to each other, plus limited account and security records. We keep it for as long as you're using Relay, so you don't have to re-upload each period, and we delete it when you stop using Relay or ask us to. Some AI processing happens outside South Africa; this is covered by POPIA's cross-border rules and set out in full in our privacy policy.
No, never. Every AI provider Relay uses is contractually bound to zero data retention: prompts and outputs are never stored after processing and are never used to train or improve any model.
Relay reads the files CaseWare and Draftworx produce on your computer — templates and workpapers included — so they work together. Use them alongside Relay for as long as you like. Relay is built to replace legacy engagement software with something simpler and more powerful, and you decide how it fits into your workflow.
Yes. Relay drafts workpapers from your own templates and methodology — your formatting, your referencing, your documentation standards — and applies them consistently across every engagement.
Audits are done in a fraction of the time, and quality goes up. Relay does the manual work; your team reviews, judges and signs.
