The story

TaxBit began in 2018 as a consumer/enterprise crypto tax calculator riding the retail crypto wave. After two large 2021 rounds it pivoted decisively to enterprise information reporting infrastructure — supplying tax form generation (1099-DA, 1099-K, 1042-S, W8/W9, DAC7, CARF/DAC8) to exchanges, marketplaces, payment processors and fintechs, plus a Government Solutions arm serving regulators including the IRS. The consumer TurboTax-style product has been de-emphasized in favor of API-first B2B compliance across 70+ jurisdictions.
