SoloDesq is a mobile financial management app built exclusively for US 1099 freelancers and solopreneurs. One app for invoicing, expenses, mileage, taxes, and client management — no spreadsheets, no accountant required.
Independent contractors, consultants, and self-employed professionals in the United States deserve financial tools built for how they actually work — not stripped-down versions of software designed for salaried employees or large businesses. SoloDesq gives every 1099 worker a complete financial operating system in their pocket, at a price that makes sense.
Send professional invoices to clients in seconds — including recurring invoices that auto-generate drafts on schedule. Track which invoices are paid, pending, or overdue, all from your phone.
Invoices go out through your own mail account, so your client sees your name in the From field — not a billing vendor’s. Every major competitor we checked sends on its own rails.
Enter miles manually, or opt in to GPS trip logging and tap to start and stop each trip (foreground only — no background tracking). SoloDesq applies the IRS standard rate in effect on the date of the trip, so mid-year rate changes are handled for you, with a running deduction total.
Opt in and SoloDesq calculates an estimated 30% of every payment received as a set-aside target, displayed in-app, so you are never caught short when estimated taxes are due. SoloDesq never holds or moves your money. This is a general guideline — your actual rate may vary. Consult a tax professional for your situation.
Save client details once and reuse them on every invoice. See which clients owe you and what has been paid — all in one place.
Snap a receipt photo and OCR pulls the details. AI suggests a Schedule C category — strictly consent-based: you approve before any data is sent to the AI, and you approve every suggestion before it is applied.
The app locks behind Face ID / biometric authentication, so your books stay private even if your phone is unlocked.
From More → Data export: an Excel workbook, a Schedule C totals CSV and per-transaction CSVs. A report formatted for 1099 filing is not included.
SoloDesq is built for independent contractors, freelancers, consultants, and self-employed professionals in the United States who file as 1099 workers. If you invoice clients, log every deductible mile, and handle your own taxes — SoloDesq is for you.
SoloDesq is not released yet. The iPhone app is built and headed for App Store review; the waitlist is how we tell you the day it lands. Nobody is using it yet, which means there is still room for what you tell us to change it.
