Hey Product Hunt ~ I'm HS Kim, one half of a 2-person team based in Korea. I've never personally filed a Schedule C — but over the past few months I read 16 IRS publications to understand the tax pain of America's 31M self-employed. What I found: a majority of sole proprietors underreport income, often by five figures a year — not because of fraud, but because of poor recordkeeping (GAO-24-106449). The result is an estimated ~$80B annual tax gap. Every existing tool — QuickBooks, FreshBooks, Expensify — focuses on end-of-month reconciliation. But the moment that actually matters is the 10 seconds right after you swipe your card, before the receipt fades or gets lost. B-ZEC is built around that 10-second window: • Tap a pin on the map → camera opens → OCR reads the receipt → deduction auto-computed • Everything runs on-device. No servers. No cloud. SQLCipher-encrypted local DB. • Schedule C-ready reports with audit-ready documentation built in. We're pre-launch, shipping Q2 2026 on iOS and Android. Follow us for the launch — I'd especially love to hear from U.S. self-employed folks who've felt that 10-second friction firsthand.
