GigWorker Tools helps independent contractors and gig workers manage their taxes and finances — for free.
As gig workers ourselves, we know how confusing 1099 taxes can be. Unlike W-2 employees, independent contractors have to figure out self-employment tax, quarterly estimated payments, mileage deductions, and retirement accounts on their own. Most tax software charges $100+ for what should be basic arithmetic.
We built GigWorker Tools to give every gig worker access to free, accurate tax tools and clear, practical guides — no upsells, no paywalls.
1099 Tax Calculator — Estimate your quarterly and annual self-employment tax in under a minute.
Work Log — Track shifts, earnings, and mileage across multiple platforms. Export for tax time.
Tax Guides — Plain-English articles covering deductions, quarterly taxes, retirement accounts, and platform-specific tax tips for Uber, DoorDash, Instacart, and more.
We update our tools and guides annually to reflect the latest IRS rules and contribution limits. All tax calculations follow IRS Publication 17 and current-year tax brackets.
GigWorker Tools is independently built and maintained. We don't sell user data or promote tax products we don't believe in.
