When I was in HS, we sent selfies over iMessage. Then Snapchat redefined messaging. Then GIFs. Then short-form video
Each wave made creation (+messaging) faster, easier, more multiplayer

Excited to introduce the company I've been working on for the past ~18 months https://t.co/U8PeWqoZiZ.

Taxwire solves sales tax compliance for founders, finance, and accounting teams scaling across multiples states and countries.

Our customer base spans SaaS companies like @Pulley, e-comm brands like @TilitNYC & @Italic, retro video games makers like @modretro, modern media cos like @PirateWires, and many other modern and legacy industry businesses alike.

We also partner with several accounting firms to solve sales tax for their clients and internal accounting + tax teams.

We can handle both simple and deeply complex businesses.

Our products and services help companies: 👇

- Understand tax exposure & nexus – in other words wtf you should be doing about sales tax
- Fix messes – clean up messy tax situations (e.g. we went from 0 to $10M in revenue and have collected no taxes) and/or save money on historical tax liabilities (e.g. avoid getting wrecked by penalties from governments for historical taxes)
- Register – get and maintain licenses, registrations, and permits required for collecting/remitting taxes
- Calculate tax rates – collect taxes accurately across your billing + payments + commerce stack
- File & pay tax returns – autofile recurring tax returns & payment remittance

Common scenarios where Taxwire makes sense for scaling companies: 👇

- Companies getting sales tax compliant for the 1st time – e.g. you haven’t been collecting sales tax (even though you should) or you just started to cross meaningful revenue thresholds ($1-2M in revenue).
- Switching from Insert Legacy Tax Provider – If you’re switching from another tax software / services company, not only can we make the switch easy (e.g. we do the migration heavy lifting + buyout your existing contract), but we can also find + fix previous tax errors, potentially recovering thousands of dollars in overpaid taxes.
- I have no f*cking clue what I’m supposed to be doing. Pls help. – We got you. Have helped a bunch of folks figure out a no B.S. take on what they need to be doing with sales tax (if anything).

A good example of scenarios 1 and 2 – we recently helped our friends at Italic recover over $200k in overpaid sales tax within their first month post switching from their original provider.

Why sales tax compliance?

Well, global transactions taxes (aka indirect taxes as the tax pros call it) are a much bigger problem space than most realize.

Before the internet, sales tax was a Fortune 500 problem. Walmart has a sales presence in damn near every jurisdiction in the world.

Post-internet, we have e-commerce, marketplaces, SaaS, remote work, AI, etc. Every company by default sells across multiple states and/or countries.

Regulatory changes in the US and abroad have made collecting and remitting sales tax, VAT, and GST a problem for virtually any company with material sales in more than one tax jurisdiction, with or without a physical presence.

Our goal is to solve indirect tax compliance globally - for every jurisdiction, product, tax filing, and edge case. From initial compliance all the way to defending audits from the gov.

It's a big, complex problem space. We're just getting started and have much work to do.

If you’ve dealt with or are dealing with sales tax compliance for your business or clients, I’d love to chat and see if we can be helpful.

My personal phone number is 513-520-1578. My DMs are open. Or email me at andrew@taxwire.

Happy Monday.🫡
