Sovos Launches World’s First AI-Powered Tax Compliance Intelligence Solution

Sovos Intelligence has launched as the first AI-powered solution for real-time tax insights. This new Sovos platform, which uses Sovi AI, helps businesses bring together tax data that is spread out and see it the same way tax authorities execute. Sovos Intelligence gives finance teams strategic insight and the ability to find risks by offering AI tax compliance tools.

Built on the Sovos Tax Compliance Cloud and powered by Sovi™ AI, Sovos Intelligence introduces true Mirror Visibility™ for tax and finance leaders, arming businesses with the same level of insight that tax authorities gain from Continuous Transaction Controls (CTCs), e-invoicing, periodic tax filings and standardized audit files, such as SAF-T.

Sovos unifies fragmented e-invoicing, tax, and accounting data from enterprise systems into a single data model, providing a single source of truth for tax operations, risk management, and strategic finance. On top of this unified data model, Sovi™ AI-powered conversational analytics allow teams to ask natural language questions and instantly surface insights, trends, and anomalies without relying on technical teams.  Beyond streamlining jobs-to-be-done in the tax function itself, this data also provides unexpected insight for CFOs and finance leaders: Now, they can see unified transactional data in its cleanest form across all their financial technology.

“Tax authorities often have a more accurate, real-time view of a company’s transactions, books of business, and tax position than the company itself,” said Swati Garodia, chief product officer at Sovos. “This creates dangerous vulnerabilities for businesses with fragmented tax, invoice, and accounting data. With Sovos Intelligence capabilities like Mirror Visibility™ and conversational analytics, businesses can not only detect compliance risks early but also ask strategic questions and get instant answers that inform planning, cash flow, and decision-making.”

The Critical “Insights Imbalance” Problem

Tax authorities now ingest data in real time, automatically triangulating transactions, filings, and ledgers to detect discrepancies. The trend in most countries is that businesses have only a short timeframe to reconcile discrepancies detected by the tax authorities or face enforcement.

While governments benefit from centralized datasets, most companies operate with fragmented tax data across different applications, creating:

• Audit exposure from data inconsistencies across systems

• Last-minute fire drills to respond to authority inquiries

• Operational disruption from blocked invoices under CTC mandates

• Missed opportunities to use compliance data for planning and cash optimization

Mirror Visibility™ 

Sovos Intelligence’s Mirror Visibility™ provides real-time insight into how tax authorities view businesses, including:

• Duplicate detection: Identifies duplicate invoice submissions that inflate tax liability

• Vendor-buyer reconciliation: Enables reconciliation between vendor reports and company submissions

• Real-time triangulation: Cross-references transactional, declarative, and audit data to detect inconsistencies before enforcement

AI-Powered Capabilities

• Smart Data Unification: Harmonizes data from AP/AR, Procure-to-Pay, Order-to-Cash, and ERP systems

• Instant Insights: Natural language queries convert complex tax questions into actionable intelligence

• Proactive Compliance Checks: Continuous monitoring identifies gaps and discrepancies before government scrutiny

• Audit Readiness: Automated reconciliation ensures quick, complete responses to assessments

“Sovos is turning compliance into a competitive advantage for businesses,” Garodia continued. “It’s how tax becomes a driver of trust, accuracy, and strategic decision-making.”

With Sovos Intelligence, businesses can get a competitive edge by using AI for tax compliance because it gives them real-time compliance analytics and unified data.
