KPMG Clara intelligence

KPMG Clara intelligence (KCi) marks the next step in KPMG AI-enabled, human-assured audit transformation. Built on the capabilities of KPMG Clara, the cloud-based smart audit platform that connects our global network, KCi brings together AI capabilities, data, workflow, collaboration, and KPMG audit methodology in a unified platform.

AI is reshaping business and society at a rapid pace, but the commitment KPMG has to quality and trust remains unchanged. That's why we've developed KPMG Clara intelligence, which moves AI from an element of the audit to how the audit runs. Empowered by KPMG Clara intelligence, auditors can spend more time on risk, insight and the issues that matter most to your business, with professional judgment and accountability at the centre.

Our investment in audit technology is about building for what comes next: greater complexity, higher expectations and a profession that must continue to evolve without compromising trust. KPMG Clara intelligence demonstrates how KPMG is turning that ambition into practical capability, giving our auditors a stronger foundation to deliver quality, insight and confidence in a changing environment.
