When a tracked provider changes its pricing, we log it here with the date and the source URL we pulled it from. No silent edits.

  1. Structure change

    TaxJar

    Extended order-tier ladder from 8 tiers (capping at 50K orders/mo) to 17 tiers (capping at 10M orders/mo) on both Starter and Professional, sourced from the TaxJar help center pricing article (updated 2026-05-07). Previously, any customer above 50K monthly orders was being pinned to the 50K tier, a material understatement at upper mid-market and enterprise volumes. The new tiers are 75K, 100K, 250K, 500K, 1M, 2.5M, 5M, 7.5M, 10M. Filing bundle pricing for annual subscribers (e.g., 25/50/100/unlimited filings flat-rate) is published but not yet modeled, calculator continues to use per-filing × volume.

  2. New plan

    Zamp

    Initial addition of Zamp to the tracked provider set. Free tier captured from Zamp's published pricing page (confidence A). U.S. Plan and Global Plan ranges estimated from aggregator commentary and third-party comparison pages, neither tier has published dollar amounts on Zamp's site.

  3. Structure change

    TaxJar

    Verified the full order-tier ladder for both Starter and Professional plans against TaxJar's authenticated customer portal. Previously the YAML captured only the entry tier per plan plus Professional 1k from competitor blog data, calculator was therefore using the cheapest tier for any customer above the captured volume (a material underestimate). Eight tiers per plan are now populated with both monthly and annual prices. Source confidence on Professional 1k upgraded D → A. Grandfathering note captured: customers on legacy pricing keep their rates; tier changes re-price to current ladder.

  4. Structure change

    TaxCloud

    Captured full TaxCloud pricing ladders from internal pricing table. Subscription: 9-tier Starter ($199-$6,299/yr) and 9-tier Premium ($799-$12,999/yr) covering 100-40,000 monthly orders. Filings: 9-tier annual subscription ($399 at 12 filings/yr through $11,999 at 600 filings/yr) replacing the per-filing × volume model. Annual prepay discount corrected from ~10% to ~16% across all tiers. Per-filing rate ($39 base) retained as informational; calculator now uses tier_pricing when present.

  5. Structure change

    Anrok

    Verified Anrok pricing against the published pricing sheet (mirrored on G2). Three corrections: Starter ICP is <$2M ARR (we had <$5M), exemption certificates are included in Starter (we had it gated to Core+), and no explicit ARR range is published for Core or Growth (we had inferred $5M-$50M and $50M+).

  6. Price increase

    TaxJar

    First price increase in over six years. Starter base plan doubled from $19/mo to $39/mo. AutoFile fees increased from $30-35/return to $50-55/return. Order-volume tier pricing also increased across both Starter and Professional plans.

  7. Structure change

    Numeral

    Series B $35M raise led by Mayfield at $350M valuation. No direct pricing change reported but expansion capital signals potential repricing or new product introduction.

  8. Structure change

    Avalara

    Avalara taken private by Vista Equity Partners for $8.4B. Subsequent customer reports suggest pricing posture has tightened, with more aggressive renewal increases and less negotiation flexibility.
