The remarks come as the company faces pressure to lower its revenue growth guidance by $12 million, amid slowing customer growth. Amidst the struggles, Vertex is focusing on achieving 100% country coverage for e-invoicing, which is expected to unlock $100 million in revenue.
In addition, the company is increasingly investing in artificial intelligence, which it expects to enhance margins and strengthen its competitive edge. It has already launched SmartCat, an AI-powered product categorization tool that leverages AI to improve internal efficiencies. The company also acquired Kitsugi, an AI startup that focuses on addressing market disruptions in small to medium-sized companies.
