All 50 states
Bank-level encryption

Simple setup. Compliance built in.

1

Set up in 5 minutes

Enter your business and add yourself (or your kids, your spouse, your one employee). Any structure works — S-corp, LLC, sole prop.

2

Run payroll in under a minute

We do the tax math — federal, every state, and the family-LLC and S-corp specials. You see exactly what comes out of each paycheck, before and after.

3

Pay everyone with one click

Tracta gives you bank-ready files: one for your team's direct deposit, one for the IRS, one for your 401(k). Upload once, money moves.

For family-LLC owners

Hire your kids. Build their Roth IRA.

Children under 18 in a parent-owned sole prop or family LLC are exempt from FICA — that's 15.3% off every dollar of wages. See the power of compound growth.

Stop overpaying for payroll you don't need

ADP and Gusto are built for 50-person companies. QuickBooks Payroll doesn't know what an S-corp or a family LLC is. Spreadsheets get you audited. Tracta is the third option.

The Problem

You're paying $40+/month for the wrong tool

  • ADP / Gusto: $40+/month for one or two people
  • QuickBooks Payroll: skips S-corp health, family-LLC tax break, Solo 401(k)
  • Spreadsheets: miss tax deadlines, don't survive an audit
  • CPAs: hourly fees for filings you could do yourself
  • No one tells you what to deposit or when
With Tracta

Keep more of what you earn. Get your weekends back.

  • Pay yourself the right way (not too much, not too little)
  • Skip the IRS website — pay taxes through your business bank
  • Cut tax-time prep from a weekend to ten minutes
  • Send your Solo 401(k) money to Fidelity / Schwab / Vanguard with one upload
  • Hire your kids tax-free (15.3% savings)
  • Stop missing deposit deadlines — we tell you exactly what you owe
  • No more CPA fees for forms you can file yourself
  • Audit-ready records, all in one place

What you actually get

No feature checklists. Real outcomes — money saved, time back, audits avoided.

Run payroll in 60 seconds

Hourly or salary, in any of the 50 states. Tracta does the federal and state tax math so you don't have to.

Pay yourself, the right way

Solo S-corp owners get reasonable-compensation guidance, automatic shareholder-health adjustments, and clean year-end numbers — no CPA visit required.

Skip the IRS website

Pay your federal taxes by uploading one file to your business bank. The bank moves the money; we handle the paperwork the IRS expects.

Pay your team in one click

Direct deposit through your existing business bank. No new payment processor, no per-employee fees.

Fund your Solo 401(k)

Send your personal deferral, the company match, and the 25% profit-share to Fidelity, Schwab, or Vanguard with a single upload. Reconciliation always lines up.

Hire your kids tax-free

Family-LLC parents save 15.3% on every dollar — Tracta auto-applies the under-18 exemption and tracks each child's Roth IRA contribution room.

Never miss a deposit deadline

Every month you run payroll, your dashboard shows exactly what you owe the IRS and when. The reminder clears itself when you pay.

Cut tax season from days to minutes

W-2s for everyone you paid, quarterly and annual filings ready to submit, all the records the IRS asks for — generated as you go.

Fix mistakes without a CPA

Discovered an error after filing? Tracta generates the correction paperwork with the right before/after diff so you can submit it confidently.

Stay compliant in any state

Quarterly state unemployment reports for everywhere — California, New York, Illinois, Texas, Florida, and 45 more — without learning each state's portal.

Audit-ready, automatically

Pay stubs, tax filings, deposit confirmations, timesheets — all organized in your Tax Vault. If the IRS ever asks, you have the answer.

Build your kids' wealth

Track every dollar of earned income toward their Roth IRA contribution limit ($7,000 in 2026). Compound interest from age 8 vs age 28 is a different universe.
