Taxjar, worked by an AI employee
Not another app for your team to learn, and not a set of rules for you to build. You hire an AI employee, you give it access to your Taxjar account, and you ask it for things in Slack or Teams the way you would ask anyone else on the team. There is nothing to map and nothing to maintain.

What Taxjar is
TaxJar provides a comprehensive sales tax API for real-time tax calculations, reporting, and filing.
You paste in a key from your own Taxjar account. It is kept encrypted, and you can withdraw it from inside Taxjar whenever you like.

You stay the boss of your Taxjar account.
Nothing connects until you approve it. You grant access one app at a time, you can take it back the same way, and everything your AI employee does in there is written down where you can see it.
How we handle your data- It signs in to your own Taxjar account. You are not moving anything into ours.
- You grant access one app at a time, and you can take it back the same way.

It works in Taxjar and the rest of your software in the same job
A real job rarely stays in one place. Reading a message in one app, checking a record in another and writing the result in a third is one request to your AI employee, not three.
