Blue dot ( VATBox )

Blue dot, formerly known as VATBox, operates a cloud-based platform focused on tax compliance for businesses. The company's core offering is an automated Value Added Tax (VAT) recovery solution that utilizes artificial intelligence to identify, calculate, and process VAT refunds from foreign and domestic spending. This service is designed to help companies manage and optimize their global and local VAT recovery processes, ensuring compliance with various country tax regulations and company policies.

The platform serves a client base of large, global enterprises. By providing an end-to-end, self-service solution, Blue dot enables these organizations to gain visibility into their spending data and maximize their recoverable VAT. The business model is centered around its software-as-a-service (SaaS) offering, providing its tax compliance solutions to other businesses.

Founded in 2013, the company has since reached a Series C funding stage. It was originally incorporated as VATBox before rebranding to Blue dot to reflect a broader scope of services beyond VAT recovery.
