Blue dot
AI VAT intelligence that finds recoverable tax in travel and AP spend.
Acquired — still operating
acquired by Sovos Sep 2026
About
Blue dot is an AI-first VAT recovery platform that cleanses, validates, and enriches travel-and-expense and accounts-payable transaction data to identify eligible VAT and maximize legitimate recovery. The company says its 150+ purpose-built models achieve over 98% accuracy across VAT and taxable employee-benefits lifecycles, and it holds SAP Concur Endorsed App status.
It serves enterprise customers, so it is not a fit for small businesses. In September 2026 Sovos acquired Blue dot to extend its tax compliance platform into VAT recovery, so the product now sits inside Sovos.
