Elev8 Mileage Log

The vehicle deduction is one of the most valuable — and most commonly disallowed — write-offs for small business owners. The Mileage Log makes it bulletproof: log trips in seconds, reconcile your odometer, categorize business vs. personal, and watch your estimated deduction add up at the current IRS rate.

  • IRS §274(d)-compliant — the contemporaneous detail an examiner expects.
  • Odometer reconciliation — catches the gaps that get deductions thrown out.
  • Real-time deduction estimate — see what your miles are worth as you go.
  • Year-end reports — hand-off ready for your tax preparer (that's us, ideally).
