DTC Store VAT/Tax Compliance Assistant

Automated multi-country tax compliance reports and filing reminders for cross-border DTC stores

Problem

DTC store owners face complex VAT and sales tax requirements across multiple countries, risking missed filings and penalties. Existing tools target large enterprises, leaving SMBs without low-cost automation.

Users

MVP

Connect Shopify store; aggregate sales and tax by country/region; generate CSV/PDF draft reports; filing deadline calendar reminders; basic tax rule library (EU, UK, US)

Revenue

Why now

Cross-border DTC keeps growing with tightening tax compliance (e.g., EU ViDA reform), yet tools for SMBs are scarce—indie developers can build lightweight solutions fast.
