Software with a human behind it

Most API companies hide behind a ticket queue. Vatnode is deliberately the opposite.

Oscar Ariza — Founder

Economist & tax-technology builder

I built Vatnode after watching finance teams lose audits they should have won — not because they didn't check VAT numbers, but because they couldn't prove they had. A boolean from a library isn't evidence. The official VIES consultation number is. Vatnode exists to capture it on every single validation, automatically, and keep it safe until the day an auditor asks.

Every support email lands in my personal inbox. Every design partner talks to me directly. That doesn't scale forever — which is exactly why it's valuable now.

What we promise

Evidence, not just answers

Every qualified validation returns the official VIES consultation number and lands in your exportable audit log.

Honesty about outages

When VIES fails, we say vies_unavailable — never a fake "invalid". Our public status page shows what's really happening.

Founder-level support

Replies from the person who wrote the code and reads the tax directives. Usually within one business day.

Fair exit, always

14-day money-back, cancel anytime, your audit log exportable on request. See the refund policy.

Where we're going

Vatnode is in early access, working hand-in-hand with EU invoicing and accounting platforms as founding design partners. The roadmap is shaped by their integration needs: national-registry coverage beyond VIES (Norway live, Switzerland next), bulk validation, monitoring webhooks, and SDKs. If your platform touches EU VAT, come shape it with us — founding partners keep their pricing forever.
