MNE Tax

What MNE Tax does

MNE Tax, operating commercially as Exactera, is a privately held tax compliance services firm founded in 2014 and headquartered in Washington DC, with operational offices in New York and London. The company serves multinational corporations with an AI-enabled, subscription-based service portfolio spanning transfer pricing compliance, R&D tax credits, fixed asset depreciation optimization, and indirect tax (sales and use) advisory for U.S. and Canadian economic nexus. Its platform is positioned as "Compliance-Grade AI" that combines generative AI, knowledge retrieval, and process automation with proprietary data — including the RoyaltyStat royalty benchmarking database — and in-house expert verification to produce audit-ready documentation. The company holds SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR, and CCPA certifications, reflecting the regulated nature of its buyer base.

The product suite is organized around a core transfer pricing module (Exactera Transfer Pricing plus RoyaltyStat), supported by specialty incentive add-ons (R&D Tax Credits and Fixed Assets) and an indirect tax offering delivered both as a direct advisory service and as an Indirect Tax CPA Platform aimed at accounting firm partners. Distribution is enterprise-led, combining field sales for complex multinational engagements with inside sales operations in North America and Europe, supported by a content marketing program, LinkedIn and YouTube channels, and a secure client portal for ongoing engagement.

The go-to-market is consultative and quote-based, with annual billing and an emphasis on defensible documentation rather than commodity tax filing. The company discloses 700+ global corporate clients spanning diverse verticals — including GE, Epicor, Alorica, Cologix, Five Guys, and Flowers — and a bench of at least nine named domain experts. The business is privately held, with no disclosed venture or private equity backing, no public ticker, and no disclosed revenue or funding figures in the available material.
