Cadus review
A mobile-first way to organize Schedule C records, with automation and tax exports in Pro.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Cadus is a mobile app for U.S. freelancers, gig workers, contractors, and small business owners who want to organize business income, expenses, receipts, mileage, invoices, and tax records. Its Schedule C categories and profit-and-loss view make it relevant to solo operators tracking deductible expenses, while CSV export and accountant sharing support handing records off at tax time. It organizes records rather than preparing or filing tax returns, so it is not a substitute for tax-preparation software or filing help.
The Free plan provides manual expense and income entry, receipt attachments, Schedule C categories, a basic profit-and-loss view, mileage tracking, invoices, and CSV export. Pro is listed at $12.99 per month or $99.99 per year. Both paid options include bank transaction import through Plaid, unlimited smart receipt scans, a quarterly tax worksheet and export, unlimited automatic mileage tracking, accountant sharing, and tax packages. The free tier suits someone willing to enter transactions manually; Pro is aimed at users who want more automated capture and tax-time exports. Plans are available only through the iOS and Android apps.
The app’s focus is practical recordkeeping: receipts can be scanned for merchant, amount, date, and category, mileage can include automatic trip detection, and invoices include payment tracking. Plaid is the named bank-import integration. That mobile-only approach may fit operators who manage records from a phone, but it limits platform reach for people who prefer desktop workflows. Choose Cadus if mobile access and Schedule C-oriented expense organization are central; consider a broader accounting or tax product if you need desktop access or tax-return preparation and filing.
