Artificial Intelligence

AI and the audit

At KPMG, we believe intelligent automation enables a faster, more efficient audit, increasing quality while reshaping the nature of auditing itself. AI helps us focus on where risk truly lies, delivering a better audit across the board.

A powerful approach

  

One centralized platform

We deliver a better audit experience through a modernized approach that effectively coordinates the audit, powers our process with automation and analytics, and supports clear and transparent communication throughout the cycle.

We’re continuing to build out our AI capabilities with increasingly sophisticated agents in KPMG Clara to enable KPMG firms’ auditors to more effectively respond to risks and deliver deeper audit insights. As KPMG firms accelerate the adoption of this innovative technology and deploy new capabilities, we are maintaining a high level of professional skepticism and upskilling KPMG professionals to drive trust in the capital markets.
