What are you actually making per hour?

Gross pay isn't take-home pay. Built for gig drivers: enter one shift — no sign-up, no GPS tracking — and see what's left after gas, wear on your car, and taxes.

Adjust tax rate & per-mile cost
Applied to your profit after vehicle costs. 25% is a starting point: self-employment tax alone is roughly 14% of profit, and income tax comes on top, so many people set aside 20–30%. Your real number depends on your income and state. See our tax set-aside guide, and check with a tax pro.
Default is the current 2026 IRS standard mileage rate (increased to 76¢ in July 2026) — it bakes in gas, maintenance, and depreciation, so you don't need to enter them separately.

Common questions

Is the calculator accurate?

It's an estimate based on the numbers you enter. Vehicle costs use the IRS standard mileage rate (76¢ per mile from July 2026) as a stand-in for gas, maintenance, and depreciation, and the tax set-aside is a flat percentage of your profit that you can adjust. Your real costs and taxes may differ.

Do you store my data?

No. The calculator runs in your browser and your shift numbers aren't saved or sent to us. Like most sites, we use basic analytics to count visits. See the Privacy Policy for details.

Do I need to sign up or pay to use it?

No. The calculator is free and needs no account. The Mileage & Tax Tracker is a separate, optional $9 download.

Is the $9 tracker a subscription?

No. It's a one-time $9 purchase for a Google Sheets and Excel file. You enter your miles yourself; there's no GPS tracking.

Is this tax advice?

No. It's general information to help you see the numbers. For your own situation, check with a tax professional or the IRS.

Which apps does it work for?

Any gig platform. You enter your earnings, hours, and miles, so it works for DoorDash, Uber, Uber Eats, Lyft, Instacart, Shipt, Amazon Flex, Rover, and others.
