Our Story

Built by developers who got tired of overpaying the IRS

The frustration was simple: S-Corp elections, 1031 exchanges, capital gains harvesting are not exotic strategies. They are standard tools. But understanding whether they apply to your situation costs $400 an hour. We thought that was ridiculous, so we built the calculators ourselves.

What we are trying to do

Give self-employed people, freelancers, and small business owners the same modeling tools that accountants and high-net-worth clients have always had access to. Free, no account required, and every calculation runs in your browser so your numbers never touch our servers.

How the math works

Every calculation is grounded in the current Internal Revenue Code and IRS Publications. We use the 2026 IRS tax brackets, FICA wage bases, standard deduction amounts, and the §199A QBI deduction thresholds. These get updated each year when the IRS publishes its inflation adjustments.

The S-Corp savings engine runs the actual Schedule SE formula, not an approximation. The 1031 Exchange Wizard models realized vs. recognized gain, boot, and mortgage relief per Treas. Reg. §1.1031. The Audit Risk Matrix scoring comes from published IRS audit selection research and Discriminant Income Function (DIF) scoring literature.

These are mathematical estimates. They are not a substitute for a licensed CPA, Enrolled Agent, or tax attorney who knows your full situation.
