What Alterdata Software does

Alterdata Software (ALTERDATA TECNOLOGIA EM INFORMÁTICA LTDA) is a privately held Brazilian technology company founded in 1989 and headquartered in Teresópolis, Brazil. It develops and sells accounting, payroll, fiscal, retail and real-estate management software, primarily serving Brazilian accounting offices, SMBs and enterprise customers (including Philips, Michelin, Faber Castell, Universal, CRC, Guanabara, Taco, Unimed Campos and Bahia Fort). The platform comprises four product lines — Contábil, Varejo (ERP4ME), Imobiliário (Immobile) and ERP e Moda — supported by subsidiaries nf-stock (fiscal document storage, 550,000+ companies, 9.5 billion documents), eContador Sollo, and the acquired Prosoft brand. The company claims 1M+ users and 500,000+ installed systems across all five Brazilian regions.

The technology stack is built on cloud infrastructure hosted on AWS (Virginia) and is tightly integrated with Brazilian federal systems via SERPRO APIs (DCTFWeb, DAS, MIT, DEFIS) and Receita Federal portals (eCAC, eSocial, SPED, FGTS Digital). Differentiated proprietary components include IA Contábil (WhatsApp-based knowledge-retrieval AI with 200+ responses), AVA (fiscal invoice automation), Alterdata IA (SPED/reconciliation assistant), eExtratos (Open Banking aggregation across 30+ Brazilian banks), eRadar eCAC (centralized Receita Federal communication), and the eContador digital relationship platform. AI capabilities are domain-specialized and text-based, applied to knowledge retrieval and process automation rather than general-purpose model development.

Alterdata operates a subscription-based revenue model with tiered packages (Basic, Plus, Master across eContador and accounting modules), supplemented by professional services (training, data migration, server monitoring, specialized consulting) and usage-based pass-through fees for SERPRO transmissions. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; published examples include R$440 for SPED ECD import, R$195/month for server monitoring, and R$1,095 for full training. Go-to-market is multi-channel: direct field sales across all Brazilian regions, a national 0800 inside-sales center, website self-serve, WhatsApp/chat, and the Conexão ERP partner referral program (10% commission for up to 36 months). The company holds ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification and TI Rio LGPD Advanced seal, and is named as a Receita Federal pilot company. It remains privately held with no disclosed external funding or parent company.
