Automatic mileage tracker for gig drivers

Set it up once. Every drive logs itself.

No start button, no end button, nothing to remember between orders. CatchMile records each drive in the background and turns your work miles into a tax deduction — 76¢ for every mile at the IRS rate for July–December 2026.

How it works

You drive. CatchMile keeps the log.

A mileage log only works if it's complete — and nobody remembers to press start between two orders. So there is nothing to press.

Today: drives logged on their own and September's deduction so far

Classify a drive as Work, Personal or Commute with one swipe

Reports: the year's deduction with work miles by month

1 · Set it up once

Allow location and motion — then forget the app

From then on drives are detected in the background. You never open CatchMile to start a trip; the start is written back from the moment you pulled away, and the GPS only switches on once you're moving.

2 · Drive like you always do

Every drive lands in your log with its route and miles

The drive to the hotspot, between orders and back home — each one with date, addresses and distance. Swipe it Work, Personal or Commute whenever you have a minute.

3 · Watch the deduction add up

Each work mile becomes dollars off your taxable income

Every work drive is valued at the IRS rate for its own date, so the month and the year show a deduction you can check line by line — ready for tax time instead of rebuilt from memory.

Why every mile matters

Every work mile is a deduction — if it's in your log.

At 76¢ a mile, 1,000 work miles is $760 of deduction — but only the miles that were written down count. CatchMile values each drive at the IRS rate in force on its own day and never averages the mid-year change.

A gap in working hours with no drives, flagged in the app

Tracking is off — not recording, with the fix

A safety net for the log

If your phone ever switches tracking off, you'll see it.

Phones kill background apps — a permission changed in an update, battery optimisation switched back on. CatchMile checks its own tracking and shows the cause in the app with the fix. Working hours with no drives are flagged as a gap, so you can add a drive you know you made.

What's inside

A log you never have to babysit.

Every drive, written down as it happens

Date, start and end address, time and distance — for the drive to the hotspot as much as the drive to the customer. Nothing to start, nothing to stop.

Drives list with addresses, times and distances

Work, Personal, Commute

One swipe per drive. Commute is its own category, because the IRS treats it differently.

Classify sheet: Work, Personal or Commute

Works without signing in

Miles are recorded on the phone first and sync later, so a login or signal problem never costs you a drive.

GPS only when you move

The GPS switches on once you are moving, not while the phone sits in your pocket at the restaurant counter.

Walking isn't driving

Carrying an order up to an apartment doesn't turn into a fake drive in your log.

The whole year at a glance

Work miles by month and the year's deduction, each rate period on its own line.

Reports: 2026 deduction so far and work miles by month

Checks itself, so you don't have to

Location permission, motion, battery optimisation, drives in your shift hours — each with the time it last passed.

Mileage by platform

What your gig app's own record leaves out.
