Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Taxrates.io API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Taxrates.io API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine

# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Ftaxrates.io%2Ftaxratesio-api" | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Ftaxrates.io%2Ftaxratesio-api" | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

Automated v3/tax Management

Automate v3/tax operations by combining multiple Taxrates.io API endpoints. Agents can tax rates by ip address and then all tax rates in a single workflow.

Call GET /v1/tax/ip to tax rates by ip address, then verify the result

AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Taxrates.io API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle none tokens manually.

Search Jentic for 'tax rates by country code', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why Jentic?

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.

Setup

The Taxrates.io API needs no auth credential, but wiring it by hand still means targeting the api.taxrates.io host, tracking its mixed v1 and v3 paths, and building your own retry handling. Through Jentic you install once, import the Taxrates.io API from the API Directory, and your agent calls it.

Permission scoping

The Taxrates.io API's listed operations are read-only tax-rate lookups where the target travels as query parameters, so limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as getting rates by country code or by IP. You choose what it may call, and these endpoints only read rates, so nothing that changes state is included.

Credential isolation

The Taxrates.io API needs no credential, so there is nothing for the agent to hold; any configuration your Jentic One instance stores is kept encrypted and never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'get tax rates by country code' or 'look up tax by IP', and Jentic returns the matching Taxrates.io API operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using Taxrates.io API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Taxrates.io API use?

The Taxrates.io API uses no authentication. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.

Can I tax rates by country code with the Taxrates.io API?

Yes. Use the GET /v1/tax/countrycode endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

What are the rate limits for the Taxrates.io API?

Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.

How do I tax rates by country code through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'tax rates by country code'. Jentic returns the matching Taxrates.io API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

How many endpoints does the Taxrates.io API have?

The Taxrates.io API exposes 3 endpoints covering v3/tax, v1/tax operations.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Taxrates.io API?

Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which Taxrates.io API operations and configuration the agent may use, so you can allow only the lookups it needs, such as GET /v1/tax/countrycode for rates by country code or GET /v1/tax/ip for rates by IP address. Every listed operation is a read-only tax-rate lookup that passes its target as a query parameter, so nothing the agent can call changes state. You can also withhold the broader GET /v3/tax/rates listing if a single-country or single-IP lookup is all the agent should reach.
