Free financial & tax payout calculators for 1099 gig workers
GigCalcLab is a zero-paywall financial tool suite built for freelancers, remote workers, and 1099 gig drivers. Unlike generic calculators, GigCalcLab maps platform commission fees (Fiverr, Upwork) alongside 15.3% self-employment taxes and mileage write-offs.

Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I built GigCalcLab after seeing how many freelancers fall into the "1099 tax trap"—quoting $1,000 contracts only to end up with ~$650 after platform commissions and 15.3% self-employment taxes.
What GigCalcLab solves:
Platform Cuts: Calculates net earnings after Upwork, Fiverr, and payment processor fees.
Tax Liability: Instant 15.3% SE tax breakdown + standard mileage deduction offsets.
Reverse Quoting: Input desired take-home profit to find the exact rate you need to quote.
Tech Stack: Built with Astro JS & React for sub-second page loads. 100% free, client-side, with no signups or paywalls.
I'd love your feedback, feature requests, or suggestions on calculators to build next!
