> If you want to actually solve this for 1099ers, your going to have to do more than just what works for a subset of users; and supporting checks absolutely needs to be on your roadmap at some point, at minimum. Otherwise... I don't think you really have any sympathy or understanding of the very field that you're trying to solve a problem for.

Totally agree here. We're working on getting some folks running on the current build & making sure it's stable, but we've already identified a couple options for remote check capture to be included when we get to building out native mobile. It's definitely key to serving a large portion of the total market.

I've been working on this project for a little over a year as an advisor, primarily on the marketing and bank tech pieces of the business. The team saw an opportunity to make something (saving for 1099 taxes) that's unnecessarily complex much simpler, so they developed this nifty automated bank account to save from a user's self-employment income. You can set a fixed saving percentage, or let the software estimate for you based on your state and projected income. So far, we've seen developers, writers, real estate brokers, Airbnb hosts, and designers get value from the platform. The founders will be checking in here to answer questions, so ask away!
