Why I built TaxWize

Every spring, ordinary Swiss taxpayers face the same problem. Cantonal portals walk you through the forms but don't tell you what you might be missing. A tax advisor for a standard situation feels like overkill.

For more than six years I led regulatory tax projects across CRS, FATCA, and US Withholding Tax, rule sets far more complex than individual Swiss taxation. The same discipline goes into TaxWize, the tool I wished existed when filing my own taxes.

Background

  • Led regulatory tax projects across CRS, FATCA, and US Withholding Tax at Credit Suisse.
  • PMP-certified since 2019; degrees in Project Management and Finance & Banking from Babes-Bolyai University.
  • Speaks four languages fluently: English, German, Hungarian, Romanian.

Built to be trusted

  • Your data stays in Switzerland. Stored in Zurich, hosted by Supabase on AWS eu-central-2.
  • Every subprocessor under contract. Signed DPAs with Supabase, Google Cloud, Stripe, and Resend. See the full list.
  • A registered Swiss entity. Szakács Solutions, eingetragenes Einzelunternehmen, UID CHE-289.567.114. Aargau commercial register.
  • Honest about what we are. TaxWize prepares you to file; the canton remains your filing authority. We say "worth checking" and "may be relevant", not "you're entitled to".
