| Reimburse | Hurdlr | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free, with no limit on receipts. No card to sign up. | A free tier for basic mileage and expense tracking. Premium is $9.99 a month or $99.99 a year (App Store listing). Pro, with filing, is $200 a year per its help center. |
| Bank connection | Never asks for one. Expenses go in by photo, screenshot, paste or typing. | Links with thousands of banks; expenses can also be tagged by hand. |
| Receipts | Photo, screenshot, paste or file drop. AI reads the merchant, date, total and card in about two seconds and picks the Schedule C line. | Photos, camera roll or files. Receipts can be emailed in, but an emailed receipt doesn’t create an expense on its own. |
| Mileage | Trips logged by hand, with saved places, each at the IRS rate of the day it was driven. No automatic drive detection. | Automatic mileage tracking that learns your routes. |
| Home office | Both methods worked out side by side, then logged on the first of every month. | On Pro, simplified method only. |
| Taxes | Every expense shows “$X back” at your own combined rate: self-employment tax, your federal bracket and your state. | Real-time federal, state and self-employment tax estimates from your filing status, state and salary, with payment reminders. |
| Invoicing and filing | None. It keeps the expense side only. | Invoicing, accounting reports and a federal and state return on Pro. |
| Platforms | In the browser on iPhone, Android and computers; installs to the home screen. Not in the app stores. | iPhone, Android and the web. |
