Revenue offices classify business activity and calculate tax and license fees against rate tables that change by jurisdiction, by category, and by year. ProLytix is building an Arcos-powered platform that automates that classification and calculation — with every figure traceable back to the rule that produced it, and a revenue officer reviewing every result before it's finalized.
Business license and tax classification is still largely a manual process in many revenue offices — a clerk reading a business description, matching it against a rate table by hand, and applying minimums, maximums, and multipliers that vary by jurisdiction. It's slow, it's inconsistent between staff, and the reasoning behind a given figure is hard to reconstruct on audit if it wasn't written down at the time.
A staff member enters a business description. The platform matches it against the applicable tax and license tables, applies the correct rate multipliers for that jurisdiction, and returns a calculated fee — along with a plain-language explanation of every step that produced it. The reviewer sees the reasoning, not just the number.
Business descriptions matched against tax and license tables using guided reasoning, not a black-box model. Every match cites the category it used.
Minimum and maximum bounds and jurisdiction-specific multipliers applied automatically, with the arithmetic shown at every step.
Every classification and calculation logged with the reasoning that produced it — defensible on audit, consistent across staff and over time.
This platform draws on decades of hands-on experience building and operating tax and license administration systems for local government. We're currently developing the initial module set and are looking to talk with revenue offices interested in shaping the roadmap.
We're talking with revenue offices now. No commitment. No sales pitch.
