Every person deserves fair, simple tax filing
Fyled exists for one reason: too many hard-working self-employed people overpay their tax because tracking income, expenses, and mileage is confusing and time-consuming. We are here to fix that.
The Problem
People are overpaying by thousands every year
There are over 370,000 licensed taxi and private hire workers in the UK. The vast majority are self-employed and must file their own tax returns. Yet most people we spoke to told us the same thing:
"I know I should track expenses, but I never remember to keep receipts."
"My accountant costs £500 a year and I still don't really understand my tax bill."
"I didn't even know I could claim mileage allowance until last year. That's thousands I've missed."
The average self-employed person overpays by an estimated £800 to £2,000 per year simply because they miss legitimate deductions. Over a career, that adds up to tens of thousands of pounds lost to the taxman unnecessarily.
