Expense tracker built for trades workers who lose every receipt

Trade workers are losing money every tax season, not because they don't spend it, but because they can't prove it. That crumpled Home Depot receipt from March? Gone. The mileage from driving between three job sites last Tuesday? Never logged. The result: hundreds to thousands of dollars in legitimate deductions vanished because receipts lived in glove compartments, pockets, and the void between truck seats. GloveBox is the dead-simple expense tracker built for people who actually work with their hands. Snap a photo of any receipt, the app instantly reads it, categorizes it (materials, tools, gas, equipment), and tags it to the right job or project. It knows the difference between work supplies and weekend beer runs. It auto-tracks mileage between job sites using GPS. And when April rolls around, everything exports directly to QuickBooks, TaxAct, or a clean PDF your accountant can use. You charge $9.99/month for premium features like unlimited receipt storage, job-site categorization, and equipment depreciation tracking. The free version handles basic scanning to hook people in. The wedge is receipt scanning, but the platform evolves fast. Add mileage tracking that auto-logs drive time between sites. Layer in equipment depreciation calculators so contractors know when to write off that $8,000 compressor. Build a used tool marketplace where electricians sell extra conduit benders to plumbers who need them. Every feature solves a real pain point that QuickBooks ignores because it wasn't built for someone covered in drywall dust. Trade workers already carry their phones everywhere. They already take photos of job sites, measurements, and fuck-ups to show the crew. You're just giving them one more reason to point that camera at something that makes them money: receipts they'd otherwise lose forever. This isn't lifestyle SaaS. It's a cash recovery machine for the people who build everything and get screwed by tax season every year.
