THE SOLUTION

How does the Juno + Lacerte integration work?

Juno extracts data from 100+ source documents, builds a review-ready workpaper, flags mismatches for your judgment, then types the return into Lacerte field by field. Juno installs inside whichever Lacerte environment your firm uses (desktop, RightWorks, Verito, or AWS) and enters data directly into Lacerte's input screens.

Pulls data from source docs

Juno's AI tax prep pulls data from W-2s, 1099s, K-1s, balance sheets, and 100+ other document types. Blurry iPhone photos, 40-page combined uploads, handwritten organizers. If your client sent it, Juno reads it. Validate in a few minutes, not hours.

Instantly creates the Binder

Juno automates tax workpaper preparation for every return. Your team can flag fields, assign items to each other, and track what's been done and what's left to do. Every data point links back to the source doc, so you're never guessing where a number came from.

Map your Lacerte forms exactly how you want

Pushes data into Lacerte

Approved data flows directly into the right fields in Lacerte. No retyping. No copy-paste. The data lands in minutes, instead of the hour it takes by hand.

Flags what needs your judgement

Juno's AI tax review compares source docs to what landed in Lacerte and surfaces mismatches: a missed state return, a typo, income on the wrong line. It also checks prior year and shows what changed, so reviewers see real exceptions instead of re-checking every line.

FAQ

Common questions about Juno + Lacerte

Juno is the AI tax prep tool built for Lacerte firms. Juno extracts data from your source docs, builds a review-ready workpaper, and types the data directly into Lacerte at about 15 forms every 3 minutes.

Yes. Juno connects to Lacerte wherever it lives: Lacerte Desktop and Lacerte instances hosted by RightWorks, Verito, or AWS. For hosted environments, your hosting provider installs the Juno integration app inside the hosted environment as part of setup.

Yes. 1065, 1120-S, and 1120 returns push to Lacerte via Trial Balance Import, with the P&L and Balance Sheet as separate documents mapped to income and deduction screens.

The Juno Lacerte export runs at about 15 forms every 3 minutes.

The data that lands in Lacerte is a 100% match to what you've already verified in Juno. Accuracy happens earlier in the process: Juno extracts data from source docs and does a first-pass review, then you verify every data point in the Binder. The export step just delivers your verified data into the fields you mapped.

Yes. For each document on a returning client, you choose what should happen: add a new form, skip it, or map it to an existing form in the return. Prior-year carryovers and pro forma data stay clean, no duplicates on rollover.

Yes. Juno partners with K1x for complex K-1s at no extra charge, reads the statements and footnotes on the back of the K-1, and handles multi-state allocations.

Yes. Juno accepts Schedule C, E, and F in any client format including Excel, CSV, PDF, and handwritten. You can choose to export either all the details or only category totals. For these schedules, set up the properties or businesses in Lacerte first so Juno can map to them.

The Lacerte export is set up on your onboarding call once you become a customer, so it's not part of the 7-day trial. The demo above shows what an export looks like on a real return. If you want to walk through how it'll work for your kind of returns, book a call and we'll talk it through.

The Lacerte integration is included in every Juno subscription. No extra cost, no add-on fee. Juno pricing is based on the number of returns your firm does.
