*Example only, using the 72.5¢-per-mile IRS standard rate in effect at the start of 2026. Rates change, sometimes mid-year — MileAudit values each drive at the rate for its date. MileAudit is a recordkeeping tool and does not provide tax advice; confirm your eligibility with a qualified professional.
Good to know
General information, not tax advice. Rules depend on your situation — confirm with a qualified tax professional.
- The IRS expects records of each business drive's date, destination, business purpose and miles, kept at or near the time of the drive (IRS Publication 463). MileAudit captures the drive as it happens; you add the purpose.
- Driving between your home and a regular workplace is generally commuting, not business. Trips from one business location to another, or to meet a client, usually are business.
- You can usually choose the standard mileage rate or your actual car costs. To keep the option of the standard rate, it generally has to be used in the first year the car is used for business.
- Parking fees and tolls for business trips can be deducted on top of the standard mileage rate — keep those receipts too.
Frequently asked questions
Is MileAudit good for 1099 contractors and freelancers?
Yes. MileAudit is built for people who keep their own records — gig, 1099 and freelance work alike. It logs your business drives, stores your receipts, and exports reports you or your tax preparer can use for Schedule C.
Does MileAudit track drives automatically?
Yes, in the phone app. With location permission, it detects drives in the background and adds them to your review list. You can also add drives by hand on the web or in the app. The iPhone app is coming soon; the web dashboard works today.
Can I track expenses as well as mileage?
Yes. Scan a receipt in the app or add an expense on the web, then file it under a Schedule C–style category or one of your own.
