Sphere
to help build out our global tax compliance platform!About SphereSphere helps US software companies manage their global sales tax / VAT / GST compliance requirements.Companies like Runway AI choose our platform because we’re the only product that offers true global coverage, is easy to implement and reasonably priced.We're growing rapidly (30%+ WoW revenue growth) and have signed customers like Runway AI, Weaviate, Zeplin, Sierra AI, Codeium, Ideogram + many more.We're building the world's first tax-focused LLMs (which we believe will be the foundation for a broader cross border compliance platform; think
Deel for international billing ).We're well funded by Felicis Ventures and the founders of Flexport, Lyft, Betterup, Go1 and Xendit.Why this is a massive opportunityThe market is enormous:
This is a ‘need to have’ solution for every business around the world once they hit a certain stage. It’s becoming increasingly hard to ignore and if businesses don’t collect and remit indirect tax, they end up paying for it out of pocket later.Strong macro tailwinds:
Businesses are going global earlier and earlier and they’re not equipped to deal with cross border compliance. Additionally, tax authorities are clamping down on cross border tax compliance which means demand for this solution will continue to grow.AI can change the game:
A lot of processes related to tax compliance / research have been extremely manual and cumbersome to date. We think LLMs can change that.Product vision:
We believe that tax-focused LLMs will be the foundation of a broader cross border compliance platform that helps businesses go global from day 1.What you will doWithin days:Work with our Engineering team (all ex-Deel) to understand the three key pillars of our platform - 1.) customer integrations, 2.) our web app and 3.) tax authority integrations.Own a part of the platform and start shipping from Week 1.Work directly with customers to solve their pain points.
