Make your manufacturing tax automation work harder
You already automate tax. Avalara software helps connect key systems, sharpen accuracy, and make manufacturing compliance more efficient across plants and channels.
Simplify everything you already have
By now, your systems are already doing a lot — ERPs, tax engines, and finance tools automating parts of the process. The problem is, they rarely work as one. Data lives in silos. Manual reviews still fill the gaps. And every new market, product, or acquisition adds another layer of complexity to manage.
Avalara unifies everything under one intelligent platform. It connects to your existing systems, fills the manual gaps, and improves the automations you already rely on. Instead of separate tools and disconnected workflows, you get a single source of truth for every transaction, rule, and exemption — all powered by real-time intelligence.
Our platform runs on MCP servers in an active-active architecture for zero downtime, handling over 11,000 API calls per second and continuously updating tax content from 60,000+ data sources across 190+ countries. Agentic AI strengthens every process, learning from billions of transactions to anticipate rule changes, flag anomalies, and adapt automatically.
With Avalara, manufacturers gain the visibility, speed, and confidence to grow — without re-engineering their systems or compromising control. It’s the smarter way to simplify what’s manual, optimize what’s automated, and bring it all together under one roof.
