AI and technology in Audit

You can expect more from your audit with AI

KPMG is transforming the audit experience by harnessing the latest technology, including AI, to deliver a risk-based and data-driven audit. Through process automation and enhanced agility, KPMG audit professionals are able to focus on the data that matters most and offer new insights that can help organizations move their businesses forward. We believe intelligent automation enables a faster, more efficient audit, increasing quality while reshaping the nature of auditing itself. Its potential to power productivity and drive decision-making is ready to be realized.

At KPMG, we combine our global audit experience and AI services to help you adopt AI responsibly, putting governance and ethics front and center so you can modernize with confidence. Whether streamlining processes or uncovering new value, our global organization of member firms helps you move beyond complexity — translating AI into true business advantage.

We’re continuing to build out our AI capabilities with increasingly sophisticated agents in KPMG Clara to enable KPMG firms’ auditors to more effectively respond to risks and deliver deeper audit insights. As KPMG firms accelerate the adoption of this innovative technology and deploy new capabilities, we are maintaining a high level of professional skepticism and upskilling KPMG professionals to drive trust in the capital markets.
