# Sphere

A global tax compliance software automating indirect tax (sales tax, VAT, GST) registration, calculation, and filing via an AI-native engine and local rails to tax authorities.

**Route:** surfaced by the tax compliance automation lane's de-branded queries → substitute to stripe.com.

**Why it's on the map:** A buyer evaluating Stripe Tax would consider this as an alternative that automates the same tax compliance job through a dedicated tax engine rather than through payment infrastructure.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> End-to-end indirect tax compliance automation

> AI Native Tax Engine

> global automation via local rails Sphere’s local rails into 100+ tax authorities around the world provide true end-to-end automation across registration, calculation, filing and remittance
