Today, worker earnings on any one company's platform (Uber, Doordash, Instacart, etc.) can be extremely volatile day to day or even hour to hour. They have different peak demand/pay periods and different levels of supply constraints. Without transparent, market wide earnings information it can make your decision of where and when to work extremely difficult. We're here to give you all the information you need to see what jobs are paying the most in real time and make it easy to plan your schedule to hit your earnings goal faster. On average, users in cities where our Smart Schedule is available make 20% more per hour or up to $360/month in places like Seattle.
It's not too good to be true - it's math and statistics! As more Solopreneurs join the Solo platform, we are able to provide increasingly accurate pay predictions. As these predictions reach a certain level of reliability we then guarantee them for those scheduling their app based work with the Solo platform in a growing number of cities.

Solo's app automatically tracks and calculates your work-related driving so that you can maximize your tax deductions as long as you open the app and keep it running in the background while you work. The app matches your location with your gig working time so that you don’t need to turn the tracker on and off manually. You can also edit your deductible miles manually to ensure further accuracy. On average, we see that users can save $1,500/year in tax deductions when using Solo.

We use your data to help provide insights about your individual work history across multiple earnings sources. This data is aggregated anonymously with others in the community to provide city-level pay and performance benchmarks. We will delete your data if 1) you disconnect a linked work account or 2) if you delete your Solo account. You can find more information on our data policies here.
Your login credentials are secure, encrypted and sent directly to your chosen app which allows us to securely retrieve trip data. We will never receive a copy of your login info and we are not able to access your accounts. When you disconnect a linked work account, we also delete all data related to that user and platform.

To guarantee more than 10 hours, you can purchase additional credits for $.25. If you purchase credits in bulk, you can save up to 25%, bringing the price to $.19/credit. You can also find more information in our recent blog post or on our pricing page.
We are able to provide earnings predictions for major gig jobs across each hour and day of the week by using collective data and insights from the Solo community. This real, community based data informs Solo’s predictive algorithm, which shows your predicted earnings by job and hour. Your anonymized work information contributes to the community insights; however, your personal information is never available to anyone else.
Our overarching goal is to provide income stability for workers in the gig space by eliminating the downside risk associated with flexible work and variable pay. We believe this can be accomplished by providing you with better earnings data that solves the problem of where, when and what job you should work to hit your income goals. We want to help you, and others, stabilize earnings and optimize your time.
Payouts occur once weekly. While your earnings are assured on a daily basis, you will be able to access any accrued amounts for the prior week (Monday to Sunday) on the following Tuesday. For example, if you earn five dollars less than Solo’s predictions for each of the three days you schedule and work in a given week, you will accrue a daily amount of $15 for the week. Payouts will occur on Tuesdays during the day.
Solo and the Pay Guarantee program are only available in the Seattle, Miami, Orlando, Tampa, Atlanta, Nashville, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, Chicago, Detroit, Columbus, New Orleans, Oklahoma City, Raleigh, Jacksonville, Charlotte, Minneapolis, Cleveland, St Louis, Louisville, Kansas City, Cincinnati, Tucson, Phoenix, Las Vegas, Denver, Portland, Salt Lake City, Washington DC, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Boston, Virginia Beach, Richmond, Birmingham, Memphis, Milwaukee, Providence, Tulsa, Charleston, and Indianapolis metro areas right now (as of May 2023), and we will be adding new cities soon!

No, you do not have to report any payouts resulting from the Solo Pay Guarantee program when filing your taxes. Any Pay Guarantee payouts are classified as a warranty when Solo’s Pay Predictions are above the amount you earn (assuming you meet the program requirements), which are not taxable income.
