Comprehensive financial analytics and tax calculations to help you understand your business performance and meet your tax obligations with confidence.
Understanding your tax obligations as a freelancer or small business owner can be complex and time-consuming. InvoiceBirds simplifies this process with intelligent tax calculations tailored to your country's specific tax regulations. Our system automatically calculates your tax liability based on your actual revenue, helping you plan ahead and avoid surprises at tax time.
We provide accurate tax calculations for freelancers and independent contractors across four major markets, each with their unique tax structures and requirements.
Our US tax reports calculate federal income tax using the latest IRS tax brackets, state income tax based on your state's specific rates (with support for states ranging from no income tax to progressive brackets), and self-employment tax at the standard 15.3% rate covering Social Security and Medicare contributions. This comprehensive approach ensures you understand your complete tax picture, not just federal obligations.
Canadian freelancers benefit from dual tax calculations covering both federal income tax using CRA brackets and provincial income tax specific to your province. Whether you're in Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, or any other province, we account for the provincial variations in tax rates and brackets, giving you an accurate estimate of your total tax liability.
UK self-employed professionals receive detailed calculations using official HMRC income tax brackets including the personal allowance, basic rate, higher rate, and additional rate bands. We also calculate National Insurance contributions for Class 2 and Class 4, ensuring you understand both your income tax and social security obligations as a sole trader.
French freelancers working under the régime réel benefit from calculations based on official DGFiP income tax brackets, including the latest progressive tax rates and income thresholds. We also factor in social charges (charges sociales), which are a significant component of self-employed taxation in France, providing a realistic estimate of your total tax burden.
Our tax reports use cash-basis accounting principles, meaning revenue is counted when payment is actually received, not when the invoice is issued. This approach aligns with how most freelancers and small businesses handle their taxes and provides a more accurate picture of your actual taxable income. You can filter reports by date range to match your tax year or quarter, and all calculations consider only paid invoices with confirmed payment dates.
Need to share your financial data with your accountant or tax professional? Export comprehensive tax reports that include all the details they need: revenue breakdown by period, tax calculations by category, and detailed invoice listings. Our exports are designed to save you and your accountant time during tax preparation season.
Understanding your revenue patterns is crucial for business growth and financial planning. InvoiceBirds provides powerful revenue analytics that go beyond simple totals, giving you insights into trends, client performance, and growth opportunities.
Visualize your revenue over time with intuitive monthly and yearly breakdowns. Identify seasonal patterns in your business, spot growth trends, and understand which months are your strongest performers. This historical perspective helps you plan for slower periods and capitalize on busy seasons. Compare current year performance against previous years to measure your business growth and set realistic targets for the future.
Get a clear picture of your cash flow with side-by-side comparisons of paid versus unpaid invoices. This feature helps you understand not just what you've earned, but what's still outstanding. Track your collection efficiency, identify patterns in payment delays, and prioritize follow-up on overdue invoices. Knowing the difference between invoiced amounts and collected revenue is essential for accurate cash flow management.
Discover which clients contribute most to your revenue with detailed client-level analytics. This insight helps you identify your most valuable client relationships, understand client concentration risk, and make informed decisions about where to invest your business development efforts. You might discover that 80% of your revenue comes from 20% of your clients, following the Pareto principle, or you might find opportunities to grow relationships with underserved clients.
Measure your success with year-over-year growth metrics that show how your business is expanding. Compare revenue across different time periods, calculate growth percentages, and identify whether your business trajectory is positive. These metrics are invaluable when seeking financing, planning expansion, or simply understanding whether your business strategies are working.
Revenue is only part of the story. Understanding your expenses and profit margins is equally important for running a sustainable freelance business. InvoiceBirds helps you track expenses and estimate profitability with tools designed for independent professionals.
Organize your business expenses into meaningful categories including office supplies and rent, software and subscriptions, business travel and transportation, client meals and entertainment, and equipment and technology purchases. Categorization makes it easier to understand where your money is going, identify potential cost savings, and ensure you're claiming all eligible business deductions at tax time. Each category can be filtered and analyzed separately for detailed expense insights.
Get a realistic estimate of your business profitability with our profit calculation tools. We help you understand your net income after accounting for expenses, giving you a true picture of your business's financial health. Profit margins vary widely across different types of freelance work, and understanding yours helps you price your services appropriately and make informed business decisions.
Generate expense reports for any date range or specific category. Whether you need a monthly expense summary, a quarterly breakdown for tax estimates, or an annual report for tax filing, our flexible reporting tools adapt to your needs. Filter by expense type to analyze spending patterns or export complete reports for your accountant.
As a self-employed professional, tracking deductible business expenses is crucial for minimizing your tax liability. Our expense tracking system is designed with common business deductions in mind, helping you maintain organized records throughout the year. Come tax time, you'll have all your deductible expenses documented and ready, potentially saving thousands in taxes.
Your financial dashboard provides an at-a-glance view of your business's current state and performance trends. Access the information you need to make quick decisions without digging through detailed reports.

Track the metrics that matter most for freelance success. Monitor total revenue across all time periods, outstanding invoice amounts that represent future cash inflow, overdue invoice count requiring immediate attention, and average payment time to understand client payment behavior. These metrics help you gauge business health and identify areas needing attention.
Understand your business trajectory with visual trend indicators showing whether revenue is growing, stable, or declining. Performance metrics help you celebrate wins and identify challenges early.
