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. It enables instant reverse-quoting so gig workers can calculate exact gross rates needed to hit their target take-home profit. 100% free, client-side, and no signups required.`

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!
