FlexDash is the all-in-one app for gig delivery drivers. Track your miles, expenses, and earnings across Amazon Flex, DoorDash, Uber, Instacart, and more — all in one place. AUTOMATIC MILEAGE TRACKING Start driving and FlexDash tracks your miles in the background. No buttons to press, no odometer to read. Every mile is a tax deduction — FlexDash calculates it automatically using the IRS standard mileage rate ($0.76/mile for 2026). SMART EXPENSE TRACKING Log gas, tolls, maintenance, and other costs in seconds. Snap a photo of your receipt and our AI reads it for you. Gas expenses show price per gallon and help other drivers find cheaper gas nearby. TOLL AUTO-DETECTION FlexDash detects when you pass through a toll plaza and automatically adds it to your expenses. No more forgetting to log tolls. BANK-VERIFIED EARNINGS Link your bank via Plaid (the same provider Venmo uses) and see real per-platform $/hr from actual deposits. Auto-flags InstantPay fees ($0.50 Amazon, $1.99 DoorDash) as deductible expenses. MULTI-PLATFORM SUPPORT Drive for multiple apps? FlexDash tracks everything separately. See exactly how much you make per hour on Amazon Flex vs DoorDash vs Uber. Know which platform pays best. SCREENSHOT SCANNING Take a screenshot of your Amazon Flex earnings screen and FlexDash extracts all your block data automatically using AI. No manual entry needed. EARNINGS DASHBOARD See your weekly earnings, hourly rate, and hours worked at a glance. Smart alerts warn you when you're approaching Amazon's 40-hour weekly cap. TAX-READY EXPORTS Download a CSV file with all your earnings, expenses, and mileage — organized by platform. Give it to your tax preparer and you're done. COMMUNITY GAS PRICES See what other drivers near you are paying for gas. Share your price to help the community find cheaper fuel. BUILT FOR EVERY DRIVER Simple, clean design that anyone can use. Available in English and Spanish. Big buttons, plain language, no jargon. Whether you're 25 or 65, FlexDash just works. FlexDash Pro unlocks: • Plaid bank integration + InstantPay fee detection • Earnings-by-platform dashboard • Amazon Flex 40-hour cap tracker • Unlimited AI earnings screenshot scans • IRS tax reports (PDF + CSV) • Deactivation defense PDF generator • Community gas prices 30-day free trial.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: FlexDash at none against Gridwise's shown. FlexDash also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). Gridwise's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (29K vs 8). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
