Problem
Calculating, collecting, filing, and remitting sales taxes across multiple jurisdictions is a complex and time-consuming process for e-commerce businesses. Many companies cross nexus thresholds months before anyone notices, and errors in sales tax compliance can lead to penalties, registration delays, and significant financial losses. Businesses struggle to keep up with changing regulations and nexus requirements, especially as they scale and expand into new markets.
Solution
Kintsugi provides a sales tax automation platform that integrates with e-commerce, billing, payment, HR, and ERP systems to streamline sales tax management across the entire lifecycle. The platform monitors sales volume and transaction counts against jurisdiction thresholds in real time, alerts businesses the moment they trigger nexus, and automates registration, tax calculation at checkout, filing, and remittance. Kintsugi also offers AI-powered product classification, bulk exemption certificate uploads with OCR and validation, and programmatic handling of Voluntary Disclosure Agreements (VDAs) for back tax liabilities. By automating these processes, Kintsugi enables businesses to focus on growth while ensuring accurate and timely sales tax compliance across 100+ countries.
