The easiest way to save money is…with mileage tracking?
Correct. Automatic mileage tracking to be exact. Budgeting and saving is good, but tracking work miles with MileIQ is about as effortless as it gets.
​
How it works
You can deduct work-related mileage on taxes. That includes drives between work and school, and any rideshare gigs. Driving to and from a doctor & driving as a volunteer for a charity is deductible too. If you live in MA, you can even deduct medical mileage if you got injured at work.
More deductions = lower taxes = you keeping more of your money.
MileIQ is an app that uses smart automation and AI to track your drives, helps you classify them as business or personal, and then generates a report of your mileage for you — including all the details like addresses, dates, and total mileage.
Drive as you normally would all year, and then, with a few taps, you’re ready to write off miles.
Save, rinse & repeat.

MileIQ is smart mileage tracking for
People who drive from work to school and back
Anyone taking classes paid by their job
Rideshare drivers & gig workers
Drivers who get reimbursed at work (use MileIQ’s reports to submit expenses!)
