Empowering Independent Workers With Financial Clarity
Helping US freelancers and 1099 consultants understand their true earnings, avoid surprise tax bills, and charge what they are genuinely worth.
Why We Built 1099 Tax Suite
Freelancing in the United States offers remarkable independence and flexibility, but the tax and pricing mechanics are deceptively complicated. Millions of independent contractors underprice their services because they fail to account for the employer half of Social Security and Medicare taxes (FICA 15.3%), unbilled administrative time, and business expenses.
We built 1099 Tax Suite to deliver transparent, CPA-aligned financial calculators that reverse-engineer the exact gross hourly rate needed to achieve a desired net take-home salary.
Our Computational Methodology
Our engine incorporates current IRS progressive federal brackets (10% to 37%), Standard Deductions, and the 20% Qualified Business Income (QBI) deduction under Section 199A.
Accurate state tax calculations accounting for no-income-tax jurisdictions (Texas, Florida, Washington, Nevada, Wyoming, Tennessee, Alaska, South Dakota) and progressive states.
We automatically apply the 50% Self-Employment Tax deduction allowed by the IRS on Form 1040, preventing overestimation of federal tax liability.
Realistic modeling of non-billable overhead time (invoicing, marketing, client communication) to ensure quoted hourly rates reflect real earnings.
Your Financial Data Never Leaves Your Device
Unlike other financial web applications, all computations take place inside your local browser runtime. We do not store, collect, or share your salary figures, expenses, or client rates on any server.
