Sales Tax Filings ‑ BreezyFile holds the top spot for taxes with 24.3% market share, but the gap to challengers is closing, -36.1pp ahead of Numeral Sales Tax (60.4%). TaxCloud Sales Tax Automation sits at #3 with 4.7% share, rounding out the top tier. Together, the top 3 apps absorb 89.4% of all taxes installs — a highly concentrated landscape with limited room for new entrants.
