THE PROBLEM

Sales tax inside Fishbowl shouldn't feel like a second ERP.

Most tax engines bolt onto Fishbowl with layers of add-on modules, opaque pricing, and ticket-queue support that slows everything down. Finance and tax teams end up spending more time managing the tax software than managing tax.

Clarus takes a different approach. One focused calculation engine, a clean connection into Fishbowl, and US-based tax professionals on the other end of the phone.

One calculation engine built across your environment

Integration built and maintained by Clarus

Predictable pricing with no add-on modules at renewal

Direct access to real US-based tax professionals

How the Integration Works

Built by Clarus. Configured for your business.

AkuCalc connects through a Clarus-built integration that keeps sales tax calculation within your existing workflow. Because we build and support our own integrations, you work directly with the team behind the technology whenever you need assistance.
