Hey Product Hunt! šŸ‘‹ I'm the founder of tipfort.com, and I'll be honest — I built this because I watched a restaurant owner client get hit with a $14,000 IRS penalty letter for W-2 tip reporting errors. It was completely avoidable. With the OBBBA now in effect, the rules around W-2 Box 12/14b for tipped employees have become stricter — and the penalty tiers ($60 / $330 / $680 per employee) mean a business with just 20 tipped workers is staring at up to $13,600 in exposure if they get it wrong. Most owners have no idea. Their payroll system doesn't flag it. Their accountant finds out in January. TipFort solves this by automating the entire compliance chain — from daily tip tracking and FLSA overtime calculation, all the way to a one-click W-2 export your payroll system can actually use. We're completely free right now as founding members lock in before paid plans go live. No credit card. No catch. Would love feedback from: šŸ½ļø Restaurant / hotel operators — what's your current tip reporting workflow? šŸ’¼ Payroll pros & accountants — what's the most painful part of year-end W-2 prep? I read every reply. šŸ™
