About Titan

Based in Denver, Colorado, Titan Engineering has created Titan Echo and Titan Armor, innovative software solutions in cost segregation and R&D tax credit strategies, respectively. Our products combine sophisticated software with unparalleled engineering and tax expertise to assist CPAs, real estate investors, and industry innovators in navigating complex tax strategies.

Titan Echo stands as the only software in the industry that allows users to perform IRS-compliant cost segregation studies while drawing upon our technical expertise for the more intricate components of their projects. This unique capability ensures that CPAs and investors can execute cost seg projects their way, achieving the most cost effective and defensible results possible.

Titan Armor is a specialized client-facing software and engineering-support solution catering to manufacturers, engineering design firms, and software developers. It is the sole product in the market that enables taxpayers to comply with rigorous documentation standards necessary for claiming the R&D Tax Credit. Titan Armor not only facilitates the documentation process but also draws on our extensive IRS audit experience to help clients confidently secure these valuable tax incentives.

The Titan Echo Story

Historically, only large accounting firms could justify in-house engineering staff to execute cost segregation projects.  Smaller firms couldn’t afford the specialized team necessary to produce high-quality cost seg studies, and had to rely on costly third-party consultants (or ignore the cost segregation strategy all together).

In 2014, in response to increasing demand from our network of CPAs, Titan Engineering began development of Titan Echo.  Delivering its first cost segregation projects in early 2015, the industry quickly recognized the strength of Titan’s engineering and software expertise. 

Today, Titan Echo supports CPA firms of all sizes, real estate investors directly, and cost seg consultants who want to streamline their practice.   With a commitment to providing accurate, detailed, and engineering-based cost segregation strategy, Titan Echo has completed thousands of cost seg projects all across the country.
