Forgot to log your business miles? ReClaim Miles is a privacy-first desktop app that retroactively reconstructs complete IRS-compliant mileage logs for past months or tax years. Upload receipts/invoices via OCR, set your odometer, and let our physics engine generate realistic daily routes. 100% offline, local data, no real-time GPS drain or monthly subs. Download a 7-Day Free Trial (or 14-Day Free Trial).
Hey everyone,
I’m an electrical engineer, electrical systems designer, and certified inspector (up to 1000V & lightning protection) from Slovakia. Building software is just a side passion of mine, so to pull this off, I heavily leveraged AI tools to code and architect the app alongside my engineering background.
On January 1st, 2026, strict new tax regulations for business mileage tracking were introduced in our country. Since I didn’t have a live GPS tracker installed in my car and hated the idea of constant location tracking (plus battery drain and monthly subs), I decided to build a solution for myself during late-night coding sessions after my daily engineering work.
Realizing this solves a universal headache, I wanted to turn this hobby into a full-time project. But with Slovakia's small market (\~5 million people), I realized I needed to reach international founders and US business owners needing IRS-compliant logs to generate enough capital to quit my day job and focus 100% on software development.
I’ve officially launched ReClaim Miles (www.reclaimmiles.com) — a privacy-first desktop app (EN/ES) designed to reconstruct mileage logs retroactively.

💡 Real-Life Example & ROI:
Say you drove 20,000 total miles this year and saved all your fuel receipts and client invoices, but you forgot to log your trips in real-time. A basic GPS app might have captured only 5,000 miles before crashing or being turned off, missing out on thousands in valid tax write-offs.
With ReClaim Miles, you input your actual start/end odometer values and upload your receipts. The app retroactively reconstructs your actual trips between known stops (e.g., locking in your true 87.5% business usage), generating a fully compliant log for 17,500 business miles instead of losing those deductions.

🔑 Key Features (Currently in Beta):
• Receipt & Invoice OCR: Upload fuel receipts or business invoices. The app extracts dates, times, and locations (supports optional free OpenAI/Gemini API keys for higher accuracy).
• Realistic Physics Simulation: Set your start/end odometer. The engine factors in fuel consumption and physics to generate natural-looking, realistic daily routes.
• Custom Ratio & Fleet Management: Distribute mileage according to your preferred business/personal percentage, or manage and split miles across multiple fleet vehicles.
• 100% Privacy & Offline Maps: Runs locally on your PC/Mac with offline maps (optional email prompt strictly for tile server access, never stored externally).
• EV & Hybrid Ready: Dedicated algorithms optimized for electric and hybrid vehicles, not just gas.
• IRS-Ready PDF Reports: Export full compliance reports ready for audit season.

⚠️ A quick note on Windows Defender / SmartScreen:
Because I'm bootstrapped, I haven't purchased an expensive code-signing digital certificate yet. Windows might show a "Publisher Unknown / SmartScreen" warning upon installation. The app is 100% safe and runs locally. As more users install it safely (or once sales cover the certificate cost), Windows reputation will automatically clear this prompt.
We currently offer a 7-day free trial.
