# Solo (worksolo.com)

> Solo is the all-in-one business app for gig workers and solopreneurs. Trusted by 1M+ gig workers, Solo helps independent workers earn more, manage their income, track expenses, and file taxes — all in one place. Solo is available on iOS and Android. The company is headquartered in the United States and serves gig workers across major U.S. cities.

## What Solo Does

Solo is a gig worker companion app — not a gig work platform. You still earn through Uber, DoorDash, Instacart etc., but Solo sits on top and handles everything else: tracking, taxes, insights, and income optimization. Think of it as the financial control center for multi-app gig workers.

Solo solves four problems every gig worker faces daily:
1. Not knowing how much you actually made (across all apps)
2. Missing mileage deductions that cost hundreds at tax time
3. No visibility into tax liability until it's too late
4. No easy way to compare pay rates across platforms and cities

## Core Daily-Use Features

### Income Tracking
- See earnings across all linked gig apps (Uber, DoorDash, Instacart, Lyft, etc.) in one dashboard
- Automatic sync — no manual entry required
- Weekly earnings wrap-up and performance summaries

### Mileage & Expense Tracking
- Automatic GPS-based mileage tracking — runs in the background
- Captures every deductible mile for tax season (IRS rate: $0.725/mile in 2026)
- Business expense tracking and receipt capture
- Missing 1,000 miles = ~$725 lost at tax time — Solo prevents this
