Who this is for
The work looks nothing alike.The money problem is identical.
A yoga instructor, a contractor, a session musician, and a salon owner have almost nothing in common. Except this. Money arrives from several places, in several forms, on nobody's schedule, and nothing adds it up. Hatchly is built for all of them.

The people
You are not an edge case.
Nearly half the American workforce earns income outside a regular paycheck. Software kept treating that as unusual. It stopped being unusual a long time ago.

- and whatever you do
Every other tool was built to find your deductions.Hatchly was built to show your income.
The category spent a decade on expenses. Nobody built the side that tells you what came in.
Two shapes of the same problem
Whether you work for yourself or own the thing.
1099 and gig
You are the business.
Income lands from apps, clients, venues, and the occasional envelope of cash. There is no pay stub and no year-end summary that covers all of it.
- Every payer in one place, sorted by month
- A running total on any date of the year
- Set aside for taxes as you go, not in April
- Know if you are ahead of last year
LLC owners
The business is a thing you run.
You have revenue, costs, and a draw. Nobody has told you what your real profit is, so every tax decision has been a guess.
- True net profit, after expenses
- Whether an S-corp would actually save you money
- Several lines of business under one roof
- Owner pay tracked as equity, not as a cost
What we owe you
Built for all of it, honest about the rest.
Serving everyone means the product has to work for a dog walker and a construction firm. It also means being clear about where it stops.
Every rail counts
Bank transfers, digital apps, paper checks, and cash. If it came in, it goes in. A tool that only sees what passes through its own portal is telling you a fraction of the story.
Seeing your own numbers stays free
You should not have to pay to find out what you earned. Bank connection will cost us money per account, so it will sit behind a plan. Looking at your own money never will.
We tell you things, we do not decide for you
Hatchly does not file your taxes, run payroll, send invoices, or move money. It gives you information and it never gives advice. It will tell you when you are ready for a professional. It will not pretend to be one.
Whatever you do, the money should add up.
