The June 2026 GloBE Information Return deadline is the most operationally complex filing milestone most in-house tax teams have faced. The calculations are done, or nearly so. What remains is everything else: reviewing data at the jurisdiction and entity level, collecting supplemental inputs from stakeholders, validating XML, coordinating with finance, legal, and the audit committee, and ensuring every decision can be defended if it ends up in an audit file. These are not research problems. They are workflow problems. And that is exactly where XatBot Pro+ is designed to help.
From now until June 30, 2026, every Orbitax GMT user gets XatBot Pro+ at no additional cost for two months. This post walks through what that means in practice for the Pillar Two work you are doing right now.
What XatBot Pro+ adds for GMT users
XatBot is built into the Orbitax International Tax Platform and works directly with your GMT scenarios, entity structures, and calculation outputs. Pro+ extends the base XatBot capability with Autopilot, Deep Research, Response Verification, the Pillar Two and GloBE Tax Skill, CSV data analysis, an Email Composer, and PowerPoint file creation. Here is what each of those means for your filing workflow.
Autopilot: navigate and create scenarios without manual steps
Pillar Two scenario management involves a significant amount of repetitive platform navigation. Opening a scenario, checking a due date, confirming an entity’s GloBE status, creating a new compliance scenario for a new fiscal year – these are tasks that take time not because they are complex, but because they require multiple steps across multiple screens.
XatBot Autopilot enables users to automate actions and workflows directly within the International Tax Platform. You describe what you want to do through a conversation with XatBot, and it guides you through a planning process before generating a structured workflow. From there, you can review the workflow in full before proceeding, or launch it immediately and let Autopilot carry out each step autonomously, either visibly on screen or silently in the background while you continue working.
For GMT users in a filing season, this is most useful for scenario creation and navigation. Instead of manually navigating to a specific Pillar Two compliance scenario, you can ask XatBot to take you there directly. You can also ask it to create a new GMT scenario from a conversation; for example: “Create a 2026 GMT scenario for my entity footprint”, without working through the manual setup steps. Autopilot is currently available within Project Settings and the Global Minimum Tax solution, with further platform coverage planned in upcoming releases.
The practical benefit during filing season is time. Every navigation step that gets automated is time returned to analysis and review.
Live scenario analysis: ask questions about your own GMT data
One of the most significant capabilities for GMT users is XatBot’s ability to read directly from your live GMT scenarios, entity structures, and calculation outputs and answer questions about them in natural language. This is not generic Pillar Two research. It is an analysis of your specific entity footprint, your specific ETR results, and your specific safe harbor positions.
In practice, this means questions like:
- “Which jurisdictions in my 2024 scenario have a GloBE ETR below 15%?” returns an answer drawn from your actual calculation outputs.
- “What is my total top-up tax exposure across my APAC footprint?” eliminates the need to manually aggregate figures from individual country calculators.
- “Compare my Ireland QDMTT result between this year’s scenario and last year’s” surfaces year-on-year movements that need to be explained to the audit committee or provision team.
- “List the entities in my GMT scope that fall under safe harbor” confirms which jurisdictions do not require further detailed input before GIR population.
This kind of on-demand data access becomes particularly valuable in the final weeks before a filing deadline, when queries from finance, legal, and senior leadership increase and bandwidth to manually pull figures is at its lowest.
Deep Research: for the Pillar Two questions that genuinely need it
Deep Research is an advanced research mode within XatBot for more thorough investigations into complex tax queries. Users specify how long XatBot should spend processing the request, and rather than returning an immediate response, XatBot uses that time to draw on a wider range of sources, cross-reference data points, and build a more complete picture of the topic. The output is a structured research report with clear sections, references, footnotes, and source attributions, suitable as a standalone deliverable for internal review, client advisory, or compliance documentation.
The questions that genuinely justify Deep Research are almost all Pillar Two questions: multi-jurisdictional QDMTT comparisons across your specific footprint, safe harbor cliff analysis for jurisdictions sitting close to the transitional ETR threshold, GILTI and IIR coordination for US-headed groups, transition rule interactions in recently-implementing jurisdictions, and GIR versus local return reconciliation where filing logic diverges from the OECD model.
GMT users get concentrated value out of Deep Research precisely because the complexity of their work is what the feature is built for. During the beta period, XatBot Pro+ users receive five Deep Research requests per month.
Response Verification: transparency behind every XatBot response
XatBot Pro+ includes a dedicated Verification tab that automatically cross-checks each key point within a XatBot response against the Orbitax database and live web sources. For each point identified, the Verification tab displays a confidence level of High, Medium, or Low, giving users a transparent, granular view of how well-supported each piece of information is.
For general research this is useful. For Pillar Two work where outputs feed directly into filings, provisions, and audit documentation, it gives users a level of source transparency no general-purpose AI tool can match. When a response carries a High confidence rating backed by Orbitax source material and live web validation, it can be included in a filing file with appropriate professional judgment applied, without requiring a separate manual verification step.
The Pillar Two and GloBE Tax Skill: consistent research across the team
When multiple team members are using XatBot for Pillar Two research, the quality and structure of responses can vary depending on how each person phrases their questions. The Pillar Two and GloBE Tax Skill addresses this by applying a standardized configuration to every Pillar Two conversation automatically, with no manual selection required.
The moment a team member asks a Pillar Two question, XatBot responds with the right sourcing, structure, and depth for that domain. For teams doing GIR-related research under deadline pressure, this reduces variance in output quality and ensures that responses feeding into filing documentation are consistently grounded in the right sources. Teams can also create their own custom Skills for specific recurring workflows.
CSV uploads for data analysis and sanity-checking
GIR preparation involves working with large volumes of structured data: top-up tax outputs by jurisdiction, entity lists, jurisdictional financial summaries, and draft GIR schedule data. With XatBot Pro+, you can upload CSV files directly into a conversation and ask XatBot to analyze them, summarizing datasets, identifying outliers, spotting jurisdictions with unusual ETR movements, or cross-checking figures against your CbCR data, without processing files outside of the Orbitax platform.
Email Composer: from analysis to stakeholder communication without breaking flow
Pillar Two work generates communication obligations at every stage: data requests to local controllers, ETR summaries for finance leadership, analysis outputs for external advisors, and top-up tax positions for the audit committee. The Email Composer lets you generate a professionally structured email drawn directly from your XatBot conversation, with tone options to match the intended audience. Edit the draft as needed and send directly from within the platform, without breaking out of your research workflow.
PowerPoint file creation: board and audit committee updates from XatBot
For GMT teams preparing updates for the board, audit committee, or steering committee ahead of the June 2026 deadline, XatBot Pro+ can convert scenario outputs and research findings into structured PowerPoint files directly from within the platform. ETR summaries by region, top-up tax exposure by jurisdiction, safe harbor coverage, filing status and timeline: all generated from your XatBot conversation without manually building slides from figures pulled from the GMT calculator.
Coming soon: more XatBot capabilities for GMT users
The capabilities described above are available today. The following features are currently in development and will be rolling out to GMT users in the coming weeks.
GMT calculator worksheet queries
You will be able to ask XatBot direct questions about specific cells, inputs, and formulas within your GMT calculator workbooks. Rather than navigating to a specific worksheet to check a value, you will be able to ask XatBot to surface it conversationally. This is particularly useful for large calculators with hundreds of worksheets where locating a specific input manually takes time.
Data tracing for GMT workbook cells
For Pillar Two work where every input needs to be traceable in audit and review, XatBot will be able to answer audit-level questions about individual cells in your GMT workbooks: who last edited a specific covered taxes input, what a figure was before a recent change, and which cells have been modified most recently in a given workbook. This brings a new level of traceability to the GMT calculation process without requiring users to maintain separate audit logs or version histories.
If you would like to be notified when these capabilities go live, contact your Orbitax account manager or watch for updates in the platform release notes.
