Announcing Kintsugi Sheets: A Tax Data Platform with Spreadsheets

Challenges with Finance and Accounting Teams Accessing Data

Providing analytics in the sales tax and accounting domains has always faced unique challenges related to meeting users where they work daily. For some teams, data warehouses and BI tools are the norm for accessing data with dedicated support to build different views of data, especially in software companies.

This is often not true for many SMB finance and accounting teams, who frequently must stitch together disparate systems. For example, the most popular e-commerce and billing platforms still do not have comprehensive out-of-the-box integrations with QuickBooks.

This reality has forced accountants, finance teams, and businesses to work across multiple tools, ultimately extracting data and custom reports to spreadsheets to combine and manipulate data to get what they want.

Sales Tax Data Revolutionized

Today, Kintsugi announces the general availability of a new way of accessing sales tax data: Kintsugi Sheets. Kintsugi Sheets is a data platform built on top of Google Sheets that allows synchronizing data in Kintsugi with Google Sheets in a few clicks. It supports snapshots, schedule syncs, joins, dashboards, and, soon… powerful AI tooling to help quickly analyze data.

Kintsugi Sheets is available on Google Marketplace and is provided at no cost for all paid users of Kintsugi.

Meeting Users Where They Do Work

We considered building a powerful embedded BI platform and one-click data syncs to data warehouses. Still, ultimately, these add more friction than simply allowing users to do work where they prefer.

When we looked at different types of users who work across sales tax – fractional CFOs, bookkeepers, accountants, controllers, business owners, and consultants – one thing was clear: the only common place they all have immediate access and expertise is a spreadsheet.

Spreadsheets are still the fastest way to share information and, ultimately, the fastest way to do ad-hoc analysis.

The Future of Kintsugi Sheets is Intelligent and Connected

While Kintsugi Sheets, as it exists today, is one of the most innovative things to happen in sales tax in over a decade, it’s only the start.

We will soon be adding tools to use AI to analyze and build dashboards for specific use cases instantly and integrate seamlessly with AI and intelligent features. In addition, Kintsugi Sheets works natively with the features offered by Google Sheets and Gemini.

Kintsugi Sheets Key Features

• Scheduled Syncing: Schedule daily, weekly, or monthly data syncs.

• Drilldown: Expand and join data to get a more granular view.

• Flashbacks: Create Snapshots of your data automatically
