It's good that there is such a company. Now they can easily calculate everything and explain it to me. I had such a story in my life, some unpleasant streak. First: I have assessed a hefty tax, and secondly, when I paid for utilities, I was not given a receipt, and then it turned out that my debt began to grow, in the end, put stubs, and there was no way to prove that all the bills were paid. I always neglected this and immediately threw away receipts, now I keep them all the time, and if they do not give or are lost, now you can make check stubs online and in case of anything to defend their right.

As a small Cookie shop and just starting out, Caitlin has been instrumental in helping me to find write-offs that I didn't even know I had.

I love it. It's simple, design is simple, application is simple. They help you and try to do what they can to help, and have taken a lot of stress off my shoulders! Perfect for someone like me that doesn't understand taxes at all.

My book keeper, Caitlin, is a real person assigned to my account. Between her and Keeper Tax's AI, my accounts are combed and pulled apart to locate every single possible dollar in taxable deductions. She answered all my questions, and I'm now much more knowledgeable about my taxes than before I used this service. When I filed my taxes with Keeper Tax for the 2019 year. I had w2 income and 1099 income from multiple sources. Despite this complicated tax case, the process was very easy and streamlined. I got notice of my return within a few days after a brief review by a CPA to reduce the chance of an audit. I'm confident in filing a refund with Keeper Tax because they provide audit protection. Without Keeper Tax, I would have spent thousands more in tax obligations. If this is this is what their product looks like now, I can't imagine how fantastic it'll be in a few years. Absolute rockstar of a product.

So does this also handle personal taxes for a freelancer / is that on your roadmap? Last year I had W2 and 1099 income, the 1099 income was through a Deleware LLC. I used TurboTax and filed for free (as a student) and so both my business and personal taxes were handled. What would be the advantage of switching to Keeper Tax this year, when I am no longer a student and will have to pay for Turbotax?
David Kang

@philip_kiely Yes! We built Keeper Tax just for folks like you. We can handle w2, 1099, and pass through LLC income. The benefit of filing through us is we'll automatically scan for business write-offs in your bank statements. This means you'll save more on taxes!

Keeper is straight forward and simple, and takes the pain of out taxes (doing taxes sucks!) Big up on the launch!
