Freelancers routinely miss $1,000+ in write-offs.
The IRS allows dozens of deductions for self-employed workers. Most people claim fewer than six. The gap between what you owe and what you pay is real money.
Niche-specific for your work
Not a generic tax guide. Each one is written for a specific type of freelancer: rideshare, Etsy, tutoring, consulting.
Current 2026 IRS figures
The 2026 mileage rate is $0.70/mile. The SEP-IRA limit is $70,000. Every guide uses the numbers you need to file this year.
Plain English, not tax-speak
No IRS publication jargon. Every rule is explained with examples, dollar amounts, and what you actually need to do.

Built for people who file their own taxes
The US tax code was not written for someone driving for Uber on weekends or running an Etsy shop between client projects. Free IRS guides explain the rules. Tax software asks the questions. Neither tells you, specifically, what a freelancer in your situation can write off.
Own the Gap closes that distance. Every guide is written for one specific type of self-employed person, uses real 2026 numbers, and explains the why behind each rule, not just the what.
The goal is simple: you should keep more of what you earn.
