Solving sales tax early was a “no-brainer” thanks to Anrok

Raji was pleased to find out how simple it could be to get a sales tax solution in place.

“One of the things that made it a no-brainer for me was that you can integrate Anrok for free,” he says. “You don’t have to pay anything until you start hitting tax thresholds. So you really don’t have a reason to not start solving this problem right away.”

The Statsig team uses Stripe for billing and payments, and were able to connect Anrok and Stripe with a quick no-code integration.

“Once we took care of that small amount of integration work, we were all set,” Raji says.

Statsig spends 90% less time dealing with sales tax

Now, every invoice created in Stripe has the right sales tax added in real time, and Statsig’s transactions flow back to Anrok to build a picture of their sales tax liability.

Raji still takes care of any sales tax-related tasks for the Statsig team—because with Anrok, he’s able to check sales tax off the list in less than an hour a month.

“Everything just works behind the scenes,” he says. “I only spend a few minutes each month verifying and approving the returns that Anrok prepares. If I had to do all of these tax calculations myself, I’d be spending at least 10 hours a month. So Anrok has cut the time we spend on sales tax by 90%.”

Like many startups, Statsig is growing fast, which means their sales tax picture will only get more complex. But Anrok is built to scale with SaaS companies, so even as Statsig grows, Raji will be able to keep compliant and protect the company’s revenue—while spending very little time on sales tax.

“That level of automation, and hours of my time saved—time being the scarcest of resources—is pretty important for me,” Raji says.
