What LQID does that the rest don't.

Plenty of tools track income and expenses. Almost none tell you what's actually yours, right now, with Canadian tax already set aside. That's the gap LQID was built for.

Where we're different
Tax-first, not bookkeeping-first

Other tools track income and expenses and produce statements after the fact. LQID does that too — but the real difference is what happens the moment money lands.

We reserve your tax the moment you're paid

Most accounting tools record what happened and work out the tax later, at period end. LQID strips HST, income tax, and CPP off every payment and shows your Safe-to-Spend right now.

Canadian tax is built in, not bolted on

HST/GST, CPP/CPP2, and federal plus provincial brackets across every province and territory are native to the engine — not a foreign tool stretched to fit Canada.

Forward-looking, not a rear-view mirror

The rest tell you where you've been. LQID tells you where you'll land — quarterly installment forecasts and a year-end projection, all year long.
