Fondo TaxPlan - Get your startup taxes done right

Hi everyone 👋

David here, former accountant & current CEO of @Fondo (W18). After helping over 1,000 startups with their corporate taxes we are excited to bring you TaxPlan.

This is the most common question we get from founders:

"Do I Need to File Taxes for My Startup?"

Yes. Once your startup is incorporated and funded, filing taxes is crucial. Not only does this meet legal obligations and fulfill your fiduciary duty to investors, but it's also essential for leveraging benefits like R&D tax credits. Failing to file on time can mean missing out on up to $500k in tax credits. Corporate tax is NOT handled by your payroll system (they handle payroll tax).

TaxPlan is the simplest way to know where, when, and how much your startup owes in corporate taxes -- including your Section 174 adjustment. Plus, how much in R&D Tax Credits you can get back from the IRS (up to $500k).
