Free calculators for gig and delivery drivers

Three tools that run in your browser, cost nothing, need no account and send nothing anywhere. All three use the 2026 IRS standard mileage rates as they actually are: 72.5 cents a mile through June 30, 76 cents from July 1.

The calculators

Net pay calculator

What a shift, a week or a year actually paid. Takes your gross, subtracts what your car costs per mile, and shows what is left per mile and per hour. Prices your business miles at both 2026 rates separately, and keeps the vehicle cost and the mileage deduction apart instead of subtracting one from the other.

2026 mileage deduction calculator

Your standard mileage deduction, priced by the date each mile was driven. Split an odometer at June 30, or paste a log and let it sort the trips into rate periods. A date outside 2026 is excluded and reported rather than priced at a guessed rate.

Dollar per mile offer calculator

One offer at a time. Dollars per paid mile, what it keeps after your own car cost, the hourly rate that implies, and the smallest offer that would have covered the car for those miles. Counts the unpaid drive back, because the car does.

The background pages

The 2026 IRS mileage rate, and why there are two of them

2026 is a split year. What the two rates are, where they come from, which miles get which, and what a single-rate calculator gets wrong.

What a mile actually costs, by vehicle

Nine vehicle classes with the per-mile cost broken into depreciation, fuel, maintenance and insurance, and why the figure falls as you drive more.

What a mileage log has to contain

The elements the IRS publication lists, quoted, with what it says about keeping records at or near the time and about sampling part of a year.

What these do not do

None of these is tax advice. They multiply numbers you type by published rates and by a vehicle cost model. They do not tell you what you may deduct, whether you qualify for the standard mileage method, or what you owe. No figure here is reviewed by a tax professional and none is guaranteed. They are also not IRS tools and carry no IRS endorsement.

They are also not a log. A calculator takes numbers you already have, and the hard part of mileage is having them: a figure reconstructed in April from memory is the weakest kind of record. That is the gap the app is for.

Questions

Do these cost anything?

No. There is no payment, no account, no email capture and no limit on use. They are static pages with JavaScript in them.

Is my data uploaded?

No. All three calculate on your device. There is no request, no logging, no cookie and no storage, and they work with your connection off.

Which one should I start with?

If you want to know whether driving is paying you, start with the net pay calculator. If it is tax season and you have a mileage total, start with the deduction calculator. If you are sitting in a parking lot deciding on an offer, the per-mile one.

Is MileTruth available?

Not yet. There is no App Store or Play listing yet, and nothing to buy: no price has been set and nothing is charged. The calculators on this page are free whether or not the app ships.
