VAT Engine helps ecommerce businesses, SaaS teams, and developers calculate EU VAT, track OSS and IOSS exposure, and prepare reliable compliance reports. It combines VAT calculations, official rate data, transaction evidence, multi-store reporting, filing preparation, and developer-friendly APIs in one platform. Shopify integration is available, with support for additional ecommerce platforms planned. The goal is to make EU VAT workflows easier to understand, integrate, review, and hand over to accountants.

StackScope lets you see which sites started using Stripe, Shopify, or Next.js this week. We find most of what we index ourselves, over 2.2 million sites from public infrastructure signals, across 40,000+ technologies. These sites are not submitted to us, and when we spot a launch before the boards, we are often 14.5 days early. Browsing is free. Paid plans add Stackdar alerts, API access, bulk export with published contact details, and an MCP server for Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor.
