What if filing your taxes was as effortless as asking your AI assistant a question? For millions of people, the annual ritual of gathering receipts, logging into confusing portals, and racing against deadlines remains one of life's most dreaded tasks. But what if that stress could disappear completely, replaced by a real-time financial ally working quietly in the background?
In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, Neil sits down with Snir Yarom, Chief Technology Officer at Taxfix, to explore how the Berlin-based fintech is redefining the relationship between people and their money. Snir shares how Taxfix has become truly AI native, embedding intelligence into every layer of its product, technology, and culture. This transformation is not about adding AI features, but about rethinking how products are designed, developed, and delivered in an era where customer expectations evolve faster than most companies can keep up. Snir explains how his teams are using AI to supercharge productivity, accelerate discovery, and even code 40 percent faster while maintaining human oversight and trust at the core.
The conversation also dives into Snir's vision for the future of tax and personal finance, an always-on AI assistant that continuously optimizes your finances rather than showing up once a year to tally the damage. He discusses the concept of product market fit collapse in the age of AI and how legacy companies risk falling behind when they fail to adapt at the same pace that technology evolves. From governance and transparency to human in the loop systems, Snir outlines how Taxfix is balancing innovation with accountability in one of the world's most regulated industries.
As AI reshapes finance, the question isn't whether it will change how we manage money, but how far that change can go while keeping human trust intact. Could your next tax return be filed without you even noticing? Listen in, then share your thoughts, would you trust an AI to manage your taxes from start to finish?

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
