Avalara Launches Avi and a Network of Secure Compliance Agents - Built for Action, Designed for Human Oversight
"Avalara's increasing agentic capabilities bring intelligence and autonomy to the next level, without compromising control or security," said "Our customers have trusted us to protect their data and compliance processes for decades, and Avalara's new AI agents operate within that same secure and auditable framework."
Avalara's Agentic Tax and Compliance platform is built around a simple principle: automation should never mean loss of control. Every Avalara AI agent operates with built-in checkpoints for human review and approval, ensuring enterprises maintain full command of every compliance action, from tax filings to registrations, with audit-ready visibility at every step.
Every AI agent operates inside Avalara's established security perimeter, leveraging the same authentication, encryption, and data governance frameworks used across Avalara's Agentic Tax and Compliance platform.
Avi is Avalara's lead AI agent. It is the orchestrator of Avalara's network of AI compliance agents that handle every core compliance function, from tax determination and filing to exemption certificate validation, registration, property tax, reporting, and research, each with built-in checkpoints for human review.
Powered by Avalara's deep global expertise and advanced AI infrastructure, Avi and its network of AI agents scale seamlessly, from individual tasks to enterprise-wide operations. Avi delegates, supervises, and coordinates AI agents while giving finance teams full visibility, auditability, and control.
Avi and its network of AI compliance agents bring together autonomous execution and enterprise-grade governance. When you assign a task, Avi breaks it into steps, delegates to specialized AI agents, and coordinates the actions of agents, providing complete visibility throughout the process.
For example, when you ask Avi to prepare your tax return filing, Avi retrieves and validates data, applies local rules, generates the returns, and submits it for your approval, filing only when you say "go."
This collaboration ensures that nothing is filed without your approval, but once authorized, every step behind the scenes, from validation to portal submission, is handled autonomously.
