The story

TaxDo was founded in 2023 in Irvine, California as a global indirect-tax compliance platform. Its wedge is real-time Tax ID validation across 135+ countries plus a services layer (registration, filing, fiscal representation) delivered via a global partner network. The company is small (7 employees) but positions itself as the 'global hub' for US sales tax and international VAT/GST — similar strategic ambition to Taxdoo (Germany) or Fonoa, though at a much earlier stage.
