I think that, while the "5 minutes and you're done" thing can be understood as marketing spin, it would not be tremendously hard for any IRS service to provide the same kind of itemized listing that most tax softwares do to handle credits and deductions.

My tax experience is light–it takes me maybe an hour of data entry after all my stuff is gathered–so this wouldn't actually help me at all. But for others? If you could shave off as little as 20% from time spent on taxes, that sounds worthwhile to me.
