Blue J is offering complimentary access to its AI tax research platform to every full-time tax professor in Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Even better: This access is extended to undergraduate and graduate tax students as well.
Details—and how to sign up—below the fold.
Why should you take advantage? From Ben Alarie (Toronto):
[Blue J] delivers immediate leverage for class preparation, academic research, exam drafting, and answering complex student questions. It also gives students hands-on experience with the professional-grade tax research software they will rely on in practice.
There are two ways to receive complimentary access:
- Comment “Blue J for me please” on Ben Alarie’s LinkedIn post.
- E-mail Ben directly at ben@bluej.com.
I’ve also previewed Blue J this week, and it’s impressive. For example, the model picked up the § 199A regulations on losses from qualified businesses, which generalist LLMs tend to miss. Similarly, the model was helpful with questions on the OECD’s side-by-side package—a topic where there’s more commentary than substantive law. Finally, access to the Tax Notes database makes a big difference, compared to other AI platforms.
