Judy for Freelance Developers
Bookkeeping for Freelance Developers & Indie Hackers
You're billing clients, shipping SaaS products, and running on a stack of subscriptions—GitHub Copilot, AWS, Claude API, Cursor. Judy automates the bookkeeping side so you don't have to manually log dozens of monthly charges or guess whether your home office qualifies for deduction.
Sound familiar?
- You're paying $15 here, $50 there for cloud services and dev tools—they add up to thousands, but stay scattered across statements.
- Contractor invoices pile up throughout the year, and you're never sure when you've hit the $600 threshold that requires a 1099-NEC.
- Your home office deduction eligibility feels ambiguous, and you're not confident claiming it without triggering an audit.
- Cloud infrastructure costs fluctuate wildly month to month, making it impossible to categorize them on the fly.
Your Schedule C profile
Software-heavy Schedule C. Office expense (Line 18) is usually the largest category — cloud, SaaS, AI tools, hosting. Equipment (Line 13) for hardware. Home internet and phone on Line 25.
What Judy handles for you
- ✓ Auto-categorizes AWS, GitHub, Anthropic, and other recurring dev tools to Line 18
- ✓ Flags contractor payments approaching $600 threshold for 1099 tracking
- ✓ Weekly sync catches new API charges before they pile up uncategorized
- ✓ Software subscription audit — finds what you're paying every month
Judy learns your tech stack—AWS, GitHub, Anthropic, hosting providers—and automatically routes those charges to your Schedule C Line 18 (office expense) where they belong. She flags contractor payments approaching $600, catches new API charges before they pile up uncategorized, and gives you a clear, defensible home office deduction. No more wondering if you've captured all your deductions.
