03 / PRINT

Who this is for

If the IRS calls you self-employed — this was built for you.

Independent consultants
Multiple clients, project-based income, business expenses mixed with personal. You know you have a tax problem. Floater shows you exactly how big it is.
Freelancers
Designers, writers, developers, photographers — variable income and a February tax bill that never matches what you expected.
W-2 + side hustle
Your employer withholds for your salary. Nobody withholds for your freelance income. Floater shows the real combined picture.
Contractors and tradespeople
Job-to-job income, real vehicle expenses, real tools. Every deduction tracked and organized before your preparer asks for it.
Commission sales
Real estate, insurance, mortgage — income that swings with the market. Floater keeps your estimate current through every swing.
1099 households
Two earners. Two income types. One combined tax picture. The household view no other app provides.
"
A tax preparer handed his wife a paper worksheet to track the year. No app understood how that household earned. So we built one.
