contents The arguably most promising avenue towards testing physics beyond the Standard Model in the anomalous magnetic moment of the $τ$ proceeds via suitably constructed asymmetries in $e^+e^-\toτ^+τ^-$ in the presence of a polarized electron beam. Such a program, as could be realized at Belle II assuming a polarization upgrade of the SuperKEKB $e^+e^-$ collider, crucially relies on a careful consideration of radiative corrections. In this work, we present the complete one-loop result for the fully polarized $e^+e^-\toτ^+τ^-$ process and its implementation in the Monte-Carlo integrator McMule. As an application, we discuss projections relevant for measurements at Belle II, both with and without electron polarization, and outline the necessary steps for a generalization to next-to-next-to-leading order.
