Frequently asked questions
What will Fieldguide cost us, and how is it priced?
Fieldguide does not publish pricing. The site routes buyers to a demo request, and quotes are custom to the firm, its practice areas and engagement volume. No seat minimums, tier prices, implementation fees or AI add-on charges are disclosed on the vendor pages, so budget must be confirmed with sales. Treat any cost figure as unverified until you receive a written quote, and ask specifically whether AI/agent usage is included in the subscription or billed separately.
What security and compliance certifications does Fieldguide hold?
The trust and security page states ISO 42001 (AI management systems) and SOC 2 Type 2 (security, availability and confidentiality controls over time), plus a use-control attestation. AWS-hosted infrastructure provides the underlying environment; Fieldguide offers a financially backed 99.9% uptime SLA, encryption in transit and at rest (AES-256), mandatory multi-factor authentication, annual risk review, vendor vetting and a documented secure SDLC. GDPR and CCPA support is described through a Data Processing Addendum and Standard Contractual Clauses for EU-to-US transfers.
Is our engagement data used to train AI models?
The available vendor pages do not state whether customer data or content is used to train or improve AI models, so buyers should confirm this in contracting. What is stated: your organization owns its data, data can be exported in standard formats, deletion requests go to [email protected], and Fieldguide says it does not sell or share data with third parties. A limited number of subprocessors support operations under least-necessary access, and the subprocessor list is published.
How long does implementation take and how much configuration is required?
Fieldguide does not publish implementation timelines on the pages reviewed, and no mandatory implementation fee is stated. The product is positioned around running agents on your firm's own methodology, which implies methodology capture and configuration before fieldwork value. Buyers should ask for a phased rollout plan, reference timelines from comparable firms, and clarity on who owns methodology mapping and training during onboarding.
Does Fieldguide support MCP and integration with our existing systems?
Fieldguide lists Fieldguide MCP as a platform product and announced it alongside Field Financials, which signals a vendor-provided Model Context Protocol server; the same page names an Integrations capability. No specific connectors, ERPs, data warehouses or model providers are named on the pages reviewed, so confirm target systems, authentication and data-flow details with the vendor before assuming fit.
Which firms already run on Fieldguide?
More than half of the top 100 US accounting firms partner with Fieldguide, including 8 of the top 10. Public case studies and quotes cover Aprio, BerryDunn, Forvis Mazars, Sanville & Co, Warren Averett, Weaver and KPMG, with reported outcomes such as BerryDunn more than doubling engagement capacity and a 66% reduction in drafting test procedures. The vendor reports an 84 net promoter score with its clients.
