The R&D Tax Credit
The Research and Development (R&D) Tax Credit is a government-sponsored tax incentive offered to companies who create or improve a product or process in the course of their business.
R&D Tax Credit for Software & Technology
Maximize your innovation potential!
Research & Development in Software & Technology
The pace of innovation in software and technology sector is constantly increasing. Companies have to introduce new or improved products to keep consumers engaged in a hyper competitive industry with rapidly changing trends. Technology companies spent over $76 billion on R&D in 2019, which indicates the unmtached innovation potential of this sector.
Advanced technologies like robotics, virtual reality (VR), artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and blockchain have pushed more and more companies to invest additional resources into Research and Development activities. Due to high volume of R&D involved in software and technology, companies in this sector are ideal candidates to take advantage of the generous Research & Development (R&D) Tax Credit.
Examples of R&D activity in Software Development
- Developing new platforms
- Data analytics
- Development of innovative algorithms
- Internal software development or improvements
- Building custom APIs
- Cloud computer integrations and development
- Development of augmented or virtual reality applications
- Optimization and performance improvements
- Implementations that leverage data science, artificial intelligence (machine learning) and computer vision techniques
How we can help
We have often found that companies in the software and technology sector are either unaware of their eligibility for the R&D Tax Credit, or they are under-claiming the credit. Most companies do not realize that a portion of their investment in activities, like developing and testing of products can be recouped through the R&D Tax Credit, which offsets a company’s payroll and/or income tax liability.
Our dedicated software & technology team is comprised of highly experienced software engineers, tax accountants, and attorneys, all of whom are motivated to help your business robustly claim and realize the R&D credit to incentivize further innovation investment.
Let’s find out if your business qualifies for the R&D Tax Credit!
