Intuit will survive AI, but its products are among the most vulnerable to it, and AI should take a massive chunk of its business. It relied heavily on customers staying for convenience, and it has already admitted customer spending is tightening. Revenue growth has slowed to 10%, and the 17% staff layoff looks like an effort to offset lost future business. It may not be a terrible buy here, but it won't return near historic valuations, and better SaaS options exist. x.com 

Intuit is not very compelling at about 14.5x normalized 2027 EPS after stock-based compensation; maybe it deserves 18x, though there is probably little realistic downside from here. x.com 

Intuit's growing business platform makes pricing the whole firm like slowing TurboTax too pessimistic. It is 54% of revenue, grew 18% in FY26 and is guided to 13-14% in FY27; 15% growth in revenue per customer shows switching costs, though new-customer targets are missed. At ~14x FY27 earnings including stock comp (16x GAAP), shares imply low-single-digit long-term cash flow growth. If the platform grows ~10% and consumer stays flat, EPS should grow ~8-10% a year, beating the index even at 12x. … Show more

Intuit's TurboTax is cooked because AI makes doing taxes easier for everyone, eroding its pricing power. Even after the drop to 20x GAAP earnings, the stock holds no appeal. x.com  x.com 

Intuit risks becoming the example of AI commoditizing software, as AI and agents increasingly answer tax and bookkeeping questions instantly, cheaply or for free, removing the need for a costly middle layer. Its large paying base means AI probably won't crush it immediately, but pricing power and users could get squeezed. Its lofty multiples are likely over; it won't go to zero and could still be decent, but it is down 54% this year in a nasty stage-4 downtrend below its 200-day average. x.com  … Show more

Intuit's selloff on lower guidance looks overdone given a solid double beat. Per TrendSpider, Q4 adjusted EPS was $4.03 versus $3.58 expected and sales were $4.354 billion versus $4.268 billion, while Intuit lowered FY2027 EPS and sales guidance and guided Q1 EPS to $2.46 versus $4.04 expected. The stock fell about 14% at one point. x.com 

Intuit's core TurboTax pricing is collapsing as AI turns tax filing into a commodity. Goldman estimates AI can process a standard return for about $0.12, against TurboTax's blended revenue of roughly $162 per return. Intuit sold confidence, and plain explanations are now free and instant; it said last quarter that it lost on price, then cut 17% of staff. Filing, compliance, audit support and trust still matter, and it has partnered with Anthropic, but the question is what it is worth afterward. … Show more

Intuit is likely to be slightly disrupted by Claude and other AI tools that prepare and file taxes, and is not a great contrarian buy-the-dip opportunity. Cheaper or even free open-source QuickBooks rivals that startups can spin up by vibe coding with Claude add possible disruption from multiple fronts. An accountant replying argues QuickBooks with AI features has pricing power. Disruption is real but has a few winners, such as Reddit and Snap, likely more profitable from AI opex cuts. x.com  … Show more

Intuit trades at only 11x forward earnings, a valuation back down to earth and then some versus the roughly 2% free cash flow yield it averaged from 2013 until the SaaS crash. Its tax and SMB accounting markets are known and not shrinking, growing at least with GDP and population; the only question is how much Intuit captures. Free filers were never the valuable customers. Non-GAAP earnings exclude stock compensation, but Intuit's adjustments are typical of peers and less sketchy. x.com  x.com  … Show more

Intuit's tax-software moat is eroding as AI does taxes cheaply. Perplexity launched an AI tax agent that reads W-2s for a chatbot subscription price, ChatGPT explains 1099s better than TurboTax's $209 Deluxe tier, and an accountant with Claude can do a return in 15 minutes for $50. Intuit's responses, a physical TurboTax store, letting DIY customers leave, usage-based QuickBooks pricing and $1.75B of new bonds, look weak; the stock fell 20% during its earnings call to a five-year low. x.com
