Why this exists
Every year, the IRS sends taxpayers a very large volume of automated notices and letters. Most are generated by computers, written in statutory language, and mailed to people who have never been taught to read them. The result is a strange, expensive gap: a letter that is often negotiable, reducible, or simply wrong gets treated as a verdict, because nobody could understand it in time to respond.
What happens in that gap is what bothered us enough to build this. People pay proposed amountsthat were never correct, because "proposed" looked like "final." People book $300-500 consultations to have a one-page letter read to them. And people freeze, letting a 30-day window quietly close, watching a solvable problem compound into penalties and interest, missing rights they didn't know they had.
So we built a translator. You photograph your IRS letter, and software explains it in plain English, what it means, what it's really asking, your exact deadline, and what happens if you do nothing. That explanation is free, always, along with our lookup, calculators, quiz and glossary. If you then decide to respond and want help preparing the documents, that's the part we charge for, $39, once. You review everything, you sign, you send. Your response, your name, your decision.
How we make money (the honest version)
We're a software company with exactly one revenue stream: preparing response document packages that customers choose to buy after their free explanation. We don't sell your data, a promise made contractually, not decoratively. We don't run ads. We don't take referral fees from tax professionals. We don't upsell subscriptions you'll forget to cancel; everything is one-time. If the free explanation solves your problem and you never pay us a cent, that is a successful visit, those visitors become the people who recommend us during the worst week of someone else's year.
