Vertex and Brinta: Advancing AI-Driven E‑Invoicing Across Latin America

Latin America has historically operated at the leading edge of transaction based compliance. Governments across the region were among the earliest to mandate real time clearance models, e invoicing, and highly localised enforcement. Compliance here has long been continuous, well before similar approaches began taking shape elsewhere in the world.

For multinational companies operating across borders, this reality creates a clear demand: compliance systems must be able to handle immediate validation, deep localisation, and constant regulatory change without slowing business down. As more jurisdictions move toward real time models, what has been standard practice in Latin America is quickly becoming the global standard.

That tension is sharpening the role of AI in compliance. As regulatory complexity accelerates, organisations need help interpreting rules, managing nuance across jurisdictions, and maintaining precision, especially in regions where timing and regulatory evidence are non negotiable.

To better support customers navigating this reality, Vertex recently acquired Brinta, an AI native compliance and e invoicing provider purpose built for Latin America. Brinta brings modern architecture, deep regional expertise, and a technical team experienced in building for real time regulatory enforcement from day one.

While the acquisition expands Vertex’s coverage across Latin America, its significance goes well beyond geography. Brinta was designed for one of the most complex real time compliance environments in the world—bringing capabilities that strengthen Vertex’s e invoicing strategy and help multinational companies operate with greater speed, control, and confidence wherever they do business.

Brinta’s platform applies AI where it removes the most friction and delivers the most value. That includes onboarding and data mapping, invoice data extraction, and product classification - areas where manual work often slows teams down and introduces risk. By automating these processes while preserving visibility and traceability, Brinta helps compliance teams work more efficiently without sacrificing accuracy or auditability. 

Michel Golffed, CEO of Brinta, has long focused the company on helping businesses operate reliably in complex regulatory environments. “Our mission has always been to help businesses operate with confidence in some of the world’s most demanding tax environments,” he said. “As part of Vertex, we can extend that impact by bringing our regional expertise into a broader global platform while staying true to a principled, customer first approach to AI.”

As governments worldwide continue their move toward digitised, real time compliance models, Latin America provides a practical blueprint for what’s ahead. With Brinta, Vertex is further strengthening its ability to help customers manage current e invoicing requirements while preparing for what comes next, supported by deep local knowledge and a platform built to adapt alongside regulatory change.
