Launching TaxClear on Product Hunt Alpha Day tomorrow. Built this in one month after finding 18 errors on major Canadian tax sites wrong bracket thresholds, outdated benefit amounts, a home office deduction eliminated in 2022 still being listed as valid on TurboTax.
Two Reddit posts hit 85,000 views in 48 hours with zero ad spend. April 30 is 23 days away and 12 million Canadians are still filing.
Happy to answer anything: Canadian tax questions before April 30 How I built it solo in one month (Next.js, Claude API, Supabase) The specific errors I found on major tax sites Why I chose profile-first over form-first architecture
Built because every major Canadian tax site shows wrong 2025 numbers. The home office flat rate ($2/day) was eliminated in 2022 — TurboTax still lists it. GST Credit amounts are outdated. Bracket thresholds are wrong.
TaxClear is profile-first, not form-first. Answer 10 questions, get every deduction with exact dollar amounts. See your full refund estimate free before paying anything.
Built for students, newcomers, gig workers, and employed Canadians. April 30 is 23 days away.
