TOOLSAudit decision wizards

Five audit decisions, untangled in a few minutes.

Each wizard is a short series of questions tied to Canadian standards (CAS, IFRS, NI, CPAB). Recommendations are advisory — Auditus.ai verifies readiness; the audit firm performs the audit.

Do we need an audit this year?

Five quick questions to surface whether a full audit is mandated, optional, or could be deferred to a review engagement.

~ 3 min

Should we change our audit firm?

Switching auditors is disruptive and signals something to the market. This wizard surfaces whether a change is a good fit or a costly distraction.

~ 4 min

Are we ready to go public from an audit standpoint?

Listing-readiness from a pure audit lens — historical statements, auditor, and ICFR posture. Surfaces the biggest gap-to-prospectus.

~ 4 min

Should we wait until next fiscal year to do the audit?

Timing trade-offs when the audit is optional. Surfaces whether deferral is a real saving or a deferred cost with interest.

~ 3 min

Do we need an ICFR audit?

ICFR-related obligations differ wildly: NI 52-109 (Canada), SOX 404(b) (US cross-listed), and CPAB inspection-tier triggers. This wizard surfaces which (if any) apply.

These wizards do not replace advice from your auditor, accountant, or legal counsel. For a specific situation, have the decision validated by a professional advisor.
