Meet Taxfix
Taxfix is Europe's leading mobile tax app with millions of downloads in Germany, Italy and Spain. Their mission is to make complex tax systems accessible to everyone and allow users to submit tax returns quickly and easily via app or web, ultimately unlocking financial well-being for everyone. The Taxfix app helps taxpayers claim the highest possible tax refunds by guiding users through the process of filing their taxes by asking them simple questions as a tax advisor would. The company recently surpassed the milestone of two billion euros in tax refunds returned to their customers.
The Challenge
When expanding into additional regions, Taxfix must account for legal and cultural differences across countries, including local tax-filing norms. Tax declarations require precise and reliable government-provided datasets, which vary by country. Taxfix must conduct thorough analyses to ensure its Google Cloud framework adheres to industry standards, local norms and expectations, and is resilient to unexpected events.
The Solution
Since 2020, Taxfix has relied on DoiT's expertise across Google Cloud, Kubernetes, and Google Maps Platform, and adopted DoiT's world-class first-line support. Taxfix also benefits from specialized consulting and DoiT's proprietary cloud technologies, which increase confidence in decision-making and reduce costs significantly. DoiT provides direct access to experts for implementation guidance and tool selection as Taxfix enters new markets.
Results
- Focus on developing and launching new products while expanding product line
- Successfully launched 'Do it for me' service connecting users with tax advisors
- Continued international expansion with DoiT expertise informing decisions
It may appear too good to be true, and we were initially skeptical about it when we signed up, wondering what the catch might be. However, we decided to have faith in DoiT and give it a chance. Once you get past your skepticism, you will appreciate the value of its services and expertise.
Ilya Kozlov, VP Engineering
Google Maps Platform Integration
To diversify and adapt its products, Taxfix prioritizes core services compute, Kubernetes, networking, and databases over advanced features. Taxfix complements its offering with user-friendly Google Maps Platform services such as Place Autocomplete, and leverages the Geocoding API and Directions API to help users provide accurate addresses used to calculate daily travel distances for commute-related deductions. With Google's global reach, Taxfix replicates and adapts its architecture for target regions while maintaining an optimized user experience.
DoiT Partnership and Support
Since 2020, Taxfix has relied on DoiT's expertise across Google Cloud, Kubernetes, and Google Maps Platform, and adopted DoiT's world-class first-line support. Taxfix also benefits from specialized consulting and DoiT's proprietary cloud technologies, which increase confidence in decision-making and reduce costs significantly. In Germany, Taxfix continually expands its customer base and serves new segments. Amid market changes, Taxfix stays responsive to customer needs and uses DoiT's products to forecast costs and plan potential architectural upgrades.
Results and Future Growth
Taxfix can focus on developing and launching new products and services while expanding its product line, such as the recently launched 'Do it for me' service. For complex situations or when users prefer assistance, Taxfix connects them with a tax advisor who can answer questions and take over the declaration process. As Taxfix expands into new markets and develops more services, it continues to rely on DoiT's expertise to inform decisions and keep the focus on users.

What they say
Partnership with DoiT is extremely significant. We've been able to grow significantly over the last year, mostly because we could reinvest our resources in new technologies instead of new internal resources.
Jason Hartin, CTO
On integrating DataHub, the DoiT team was very hands-on to the point where DoiT support put together the first ingestion script and pipeline to unlock us.
Kyle Espinola, Head of Platform Engineering
“PerfectScale gives us the confidence to automate Kubernetes optimization while letting our engineers focus on building what matters.”
Josh Zarrabi, Infrastructure Engineer
“Without PerfectScale by DoiT, I don't know how we would do it. We'd have to have twice the number of people on my team to stay on top of it. With PerfectScale, we can focus on the more strategic issues.”
David Adkins, Director of Software and Platform Engineering
Connecting IBM and AWS privately was the piece we needed to get right, and we wanted to move faster on it than we could on our own. DoiT worked through the options with us, found the subnet overlap that was breaking the routing, and made it stable. That unblocked everything else.
DevOps Lead, Software Projects
Attribute™'s platform is truly unique. We now have crystal-clear visibility into our cloud spend at the workload and tenant level, and that insight has already led to actionable savings and powerful insights as we further scale our service.
Paul White, VP of Engineering, Shasta Cloud
We have worked with DoiT for many years, and there has been an increasing number of capabilities and features in DoiT Cloud Intelligence. We've embedded features such as Cloud Analytics and Reports in our own FinOps processes, it's become core to what we do.
Martin Lee, Director of Operations
DoiT gave us the confidence to move from experimentation to production. They helped us understand the right way to build AI for the real world.
Milad Rezazadeh, CTO
Attribute™'s cost grouping technology took our cost visibility and allocation to a whole new level. Now, our teams are fully accountable for their budgets, significantly improving our cloud efficiency and helping us minimize unnecessary costs.
Eli Zilbershtein, Head of DevOps, Hippo
You can't tag a customer in a multi-tenant environment. Attribute™ finally shows us what each customer costs and what's driving those costs.
Omri Cohen, Director of Engineering, Platform
Attribute™'s data is truly unmatched. No other solution on the market could deliver the precise customer cost and usage profiles we needed in such a complex infrastructure. Within weeks, the data from Attribute™ transformed our understanding of cost structures, influencing key strategic decisions in pricing, renegotiations, and market positioning.
Jonathan Langer, COO, Claroty
Attribute™ simplified tracking customer costs in our multi-tenant environments. Customer cost measurement is now clear and standardized, and finance gets the business context they need. Integration was quick and required no changes.
Kfir Lippmann, CFO, Salt Security
Attribute™ translates complex cloud bills into actionable, business-centric insights that empower our engineering teams to take true ownership of their costs.
