Make Innovation Count on the Factory Floor
From improving production lines to developing new product designs, manufacturers are constantly innovating to stay competitive. But many companies miss out on valuable R&D tax credits simply because they don’t track their efforts in a way that satisfies tax authorities. Boast changes that. We integrate directly with your operational, engineering, and finance systems to identify eligible work, categorize project time and costs, and prepare audit-ready claims so your team can keep building without interruption.
What Qualifies as R&D in Manufacturing?
Innovation in manufacturing isn’t limited to new inventions. If your team is solving technical problems or making improvements that involve experimentation, your work may qualify for R&D tax incentives.
You could be eligible if you are:
Designing or improving products, parts, or assemblies
Testing new materials or coatings for strength, durability, or compliance
Enhancing production processes or tooling for speed and efficiency
Redesigning plant layouts, assembly stations, or automation systems
Creating prototypes, test batches, or running validation studies
Implementing new software or technology with technical uncertainty
Boast identifies and tracks this work in the background, mapping it to local and federal R&D tax requirements without disrupting operations.
Systems Integration That Supports Your Workflow
Your business already generates the data needed to support your claim. Boast connects to your accounting, payroll, and project tracking tools to extract that data automatically. This eliminates guesswork and manual documentation while ensuring compliance.
Common integrations include:
By syncing with your core systems, we transform project and expense data into a clean, audit-ready claim with minimal effort.
