By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new tool allows users to verify EU VAT numbers and Legal Entity Identifiers (LEI) using an AI agent. The process involves obtaining an Apify token and integrating a provided URL into AI assistants like Claude Desktop or Cursor+. Users can then query the AI agent with a specific VAT number (e.g., DK12345678) to retrieve company details and validation status, with costs around $0.004 per company. AI
