What It Is

Beaverlogic is a French platform for managing CIR/CII R&D and innovation tax credits, positioned as a combination of “SaaS tool + expert consulting.” It serves French companies engaged in R&D or innovation activities, helping with eligibility assessment, cost calculation, CERFA form generation, technical reports, and audit trails.

Core Features and Collaboration

The platform’s core modules include automated CIR/CII calculation, real-time updates to applicable tax rates and rules, automatic CERFA generation, collaborative writing of technical and scientific documentation, accounting exports, compliance tracking, and AI-assisted optimization suggestions plus prior art/literature search. For collaboration, the materials explicitly mention that R&D, finance, and external consultants can work together in a shared workspace for document collaboration, progress tracking, validation, and version control, making it suitable for multi-department preparation of filing materials.

Pricing and Service Tiers

Pricing is relatively clear and charged per “annual filing”: Self-Service is €1,200, Accompagnement is €2,400, and Tout Compris is €5,000. A 3-year commitment gives a 20% discount, bringing them to €960, €1,920, and €4,000 respectively. Pricing is based on a €50,000 tax credit amount, with an additional €700 charged for each extra €50,000. There is also a free CIR eligibility assessment simulator and a free personalized demo, but no full free plan was found.

Security, Deployment, and Integrations

On security, Beaverlogic highlights end-to-end encryption, European servers, RGPD compliance, and audit tracking; its legal terms also specify personal data rights and processing purposes. Deployment is cloud-based SaaS accessed through the website; self-hosting is not mentioned. For integrations, it only broadly states that flexible integration options and accounting exports are available, without disclosing specific third-party systems or API documentation.

Pros, Cons, and Best Fit

Its strengths are its highly vertical focus, coverage from self-service filing to fully managed expert services, and its ability to standardize collaboration across R&D, finance, and advisory teams. The downside is that it is strongly tied to the French CIR/CII system, so it has little direct applicability to tax scenarios in China or other countries. Details on APIs, permissions, and concrete integrations are also limited. It is best suited to innovative French PME, mid-to-large enterprises, and R&D tax teams that need external consultant involvement.

Access from China and Alternatives

Access from mainland China cannot be determined from the available text and should be marked as unknown; payment methods are also not disclosed. If a Chinese company does not have a French entity or a need to file for French CIR/CII, it should prioritize local tax advisors, accounting firms, or use enterprise project management/finance systems to support R&D expense collection workflows.
