More than a shoebox

The financial stress, gone.
Your head, clear to work.

Earnist isn't just another expense tracker. It's the one tool that quietly carries the financial weight of self-employment — the endless card statements, the late-night spreadsheet, the "wait, what did this cost?" — so you can spend your energy on the work that actually pays.

No more shoeboxes.

Connect your card once. Every purchase lands in your Review deck. Business? Swipe right. Personal? Left. Category auto-suggested. Tax season disappears.

Always know where you stand.

Income, spend, deductions, net — one screen. No more wondering what you actually keep. No more guessing at quarterly tax bills.

One conversation with your CPA.

When tax season hits, you don't scramble. One link. One PDF. Done. You show up to the appointment fully prepared.

How it works

Minimum effort. Maximum keep.

Connect your cards

Link your bank & credit cards through Plaid in 60 seconds. Read-only, bank-grade. Every transaction lands in your Review deck automatically — Venmo, Cash App, PayPal, and Zelle included.

Swipe a transaction

Business? Swipe right. Personal? Left. Category auto-suggested from the vendor. 20 swipes knocks out a week of transactions in under a minute.

Tax season, handled

One-click year-end report with IRS Schedule C mapping. Hand it to your accountant or file it yourself — either way you show up fully prepared.
