Checking us out
Is ChatCPA legit? Here is how to check.
Every claim below is verifiable by someone who has never given us an email address. Where the honest answer is "we do not know yet," it says so.
Who runs it, and can that be verified?
Nicholas Miller, Oregon CPA licence #14907. The licence is public and can be looked up directly with the Oregon Board of Accountancy, independently of anything on this site. ChatCPA is a registered Oregon LLC. There is one person accountable for the content of this bank and he is named on every page.
AI wrote the questions. Are they any good?
Judge them rather than take our word for it. Sixty questions are published in full, ten from every exam section, with the keyed answer and a separate written rationale under each wrong choice. No email, no signup, nothing withheld. One question that was wrong is published there too, with the reason it was pulled.
How do you know the AI content was checked?
Because the rejections are published, not just the survivors. The pipeline made 28,256 build attempts and deleted 10,227 of them, a 36.2% discard rate. Every attempt is in three downloadable logs, each with a SHA-256 so the file you read is the file we published: the March 2026 question build (26,162 rows), the August 2026 question build (1,150 rows), and the simulation build (944 rows). They sum to 28,256 with no unpublished remainder. The logs and the method are here.
Does it work? What is the pass rate?
We do not publish one, because we have not collected the data. No CPA review course publishes independently verified candidate outcome data, including this one; several publish self-reported figures without a methodology. What exists here is one documented case, disclosed as such: the founder passed after failing twice, and the dated Oregon Board score notices are published on this site. That is provenance, not proof, and it is stated that way everywhere it appears.
What happens when you get a question wrong?
We pay for it. Find a question in the paid bank whose keyed answer is wrong under the law date it states, be the first to report it, and you are paid $50 per verified question, you keep your access, and the correction is published in the changelog with your name if you want the credit. The binding terms are here. Every correction we have ever made is in the changelog, including defects found by outside reviewers and claims removed for lacking evidence.
What does it cost to find out for yourself?
An email address. No card, no account to create, nothing to install, and you are answering real questions from the bank within a few clicks of landing. Twenty questions and three simulations per section are free. Paid access is $59 a month or $499 once, half price with a failing score notice, with a seven day refund if you have worked under 100 questions.
What is it not, and who should not buy it?
There are no video lectures anywhere on this site, on purpose. If you learn from lectures, buy a lecture course; this is not a substitute for one and does not claim to be. It is also useless to anyone who is not going to drill. Coverage by AICPA Blueprint area is published including the topics where this bank is still thin.
The bank holds 17,651 multiple-choice questions and 600 task-based simulations across all six exam sections. If any statement on this page turns out to be wrong, tell us and the correction goes in the changelog like every other one.
