Honest assessment

Where each platform wins

Where Clearvo wins
  • E-invoicing mandates. Belgium (mandate live since January 2026), France from September 2026, Germany from 2027 — a US sales tax platform alone is not sufficient. Clearvo handles both from one API, so you're not re-evaluating your stack when the mandate arrives in your markets.
  • Real-time authority reporting. Several EU countries require transaction data to be pushed to authorities in near-real-time — sometimes within seconds of invoice issuance. Numeral does not cover this. Clearvo handles Romania ANAF, Hungary NAV, Greece myDATA, and Spain SII natively.
  • Peppol network delivery. Clearvo is a certified Peppol Access Point (PIE001162). Delivering invoices to Peppol-connected buyers in Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, and 30+ other countries requires AP membership. Numeral does not provide this.
  • Global indirect tax breadth. EU VAT, Canadian GST/HST, Australian GST, and global coverage to 100+ countries. If your expansion roadmap goes beyond the US, Clearvo grows with it.
Where Numeral applies
  • US-only compliance, developer-first. If your compliance obligations are entirely domestic US — sales tax calculation, nexus tracking, returns filing — Numeral is a clean, well-documented platform built exactly for this. Its focus is narrow, which can make it faster to integrate for a specific US use case.
  • High-volume US ecommerce. Numeral has built its platform around the needs of US ecommerce businesses handling large transaction volumes. If this is your primary use case and international mandate compliance isn't a near-term concern, it's worth evaluating on its own merits.

US sales tax today. E-invoicing for Italy, Poland, France, Belgium, Germany tomorrow. One API for both.

Who each suits

Pick the right tool for your situation

Clearvo is a good fit if

You need US sales tax now and don't want to replace your platform when EU mandates hit

Clearvo is the right choice if you're currently solving US sales tax but operate in — or plan to expand into — Europe. Rather than integrate a calculation-only platform now and layer on an e-invoicing platform later, Clearvo handles both from day one. The API you integrate today is the same one that submits e-invoices to Italy, Poland, France, and Belgium when the mandate affects you.

Also a good fit for: ecommerce platforms selling into EU markets, SaaS companies with European customers, developers building tax compliance into multi-jurisdiction products.

Numeral may make sense if

Your compliance scope is US-only and you have high transaction volume domestically

If your business is entirely US-based, EU expansion is not on the horizon, and you need a clean developer API for high-volume US sales tax with returns automation, Numeral is a focused, well-built option. The limitation to plan for is that you will need a separate solution for structured e-invoice submission when European customers are added to your base.
