The receipt in your cup holder. The drive you never wrote down. The client payment from three weeks ago you're fairly sure cleared. If you work for yourself, your books live in a glovebox, a camera roll, and a banking app — and nobody's on retainer to pull them together. DeductSam does that part. Not a CPA firm — built to hand off to yours. CAPTURE AS YOU GO Photograph a receipt and the details are read for you — merchant, amount, date — ready to correct before anything is saved. Log a drive and the current IRS standard mileage rate is applied for you. Connect a bank and transactions arrive already sorted, with anything ambiguous held for your review rather than filed silently. ONE PLACE PER TAX SITUATION Keep a business, a rental property, and your personal finances in separate workspaces, each with its own books. Move something to the workspace it belongs in with a tap. Nothing moves on its own. STRATEGY REVIEW DeductSam runs a set of defined checks against the records in your workspace and tells you what each check found — the home-office test, how you pay yourself, writing off equipment, hiring your children, and the rental rules that apply to short-term hosts. Every check reads in plain language, shows what documentation the position would need, and states plainly what DeductSam cannot verify for you. A check reports what the test found. It never decides that you qualify, and it is not a filing position — that call belongs to you and your preparer. FOR RENTAL HOSTS Short-term rentals have their own rules, and most tools ignore them. DeductSam tracks personal-use days against rental days, records the depreciation schedule for the property, and keeps the 14-day rule in view. GET PAID Send an invoice and attach a card payment link. Payments go to your own Stripe account — you connect it, you are the merchant of record, and DeductSam takes no fee and never holds your money. ASK SAM Sam explains what it's seeing in plain English and gives you the exact question to put to your preparer. Sam estimates and educates. It does not certify, and it never invents a number about how you use something. YEAR-END PACKET When the year closes, export a packet organized to Schedule C or Schedule E, with receipt coverage, income summary, quarterly estimate dates, and the positions you recorded during the year. Hand it to your preparer, or use it to file yourself. WHAT IT ISN'T DeductSam does not prepare, sign, review, or file tax returns, and it does not represent you before any tax authority. It is a record-keeping and organization tool built so the hand-off is clean. FREE TO START Track expenses, mileage, and income, and answer every question a check asks, on the free plan. Pro adds bank sync, the full financial picture, unlimited workspaces, and team access including a free accountant seat. SUBSCRIPTION DeductSam Pro — $24.99 per month, or $250 per year.
