About Dominic Vitucci

Dominic Vitucci is the founder and CEO of Onshore (formerly SPRX Technologies), an AI-native platform that automates corporate tax incentives like R&D tax credits, 179D deductions, and cost segregation studies.

Notable Positions

On Why Accounting Firms Won’t Self-Disrupt

Vitucci argues that the partnership structure of accounting firms creates an asymmetric incentive problem. Senior partners nearing retirement won’t fund AI transformation they’ll never benefit from, while junior staff fear automation will eliminate their jobs. The result is perpetual stagnation disguised as “innovation” — firms buying co-pilot licenses no one uses and awarding automation certificates no one applies.

On Going Direct to Corporations

After two years of selling to accounting firms, Vitucci fired all his firm customers and pivoted to serving corporations directly. His insight: accountants are middlemen, not the customer. The real value flows to the corporation receiving the tax credit, and AI can deliver that outcome without the intermediary.

• “I don’t actually think they’ve earned the right to maintain the reverence that they’ve been granted for all of these decades, centuries sometimes.” (on Big Four firms)
• “Today is the worst they’ll ever be. We’re already at a place where they’re outperforming people at the junior, the mid-level, and certainly kind of touching, if not exceeding the capability of some of your most senior technical experts.” (on AI models)
