Why We Built TaxFormatter
Every tax season, millions of crypto traders face the same frustrating problem: broken CSV files from exchanges.
You download your transaction history, try to import it into TurboTax or Koinly, and...
❌ "Invalid date format" ❌ "Missing required columns" ❌ "Duplicate transactions detected" ❌ "Unable to parse file"
The Old Solution: Hours of Manual Work
Before TaxFormatter, you had two options:
Option 1: Pay a CPA $150-300/hour to manually clean your data
Option 2: Spend 8+ hours learning Excel formulas and fixing errors yourself
Both options are:
- Time-consuming
- Error-prone
- Expensive
- Frustrating
The TaxFormatter Solution: 30 Seconds
We built an AI-powered engine that:
- Detects your exchange format automatically
- Identifies all errors and inconsistencies
- Fixes duplicates and formatting issues, and flags missing data instead of guessing
- Exports to Koinly, TurboTax, CoinLedger, or ZenLedger in the format each one imports
All in 30 seconds.
How It Works

Drag and drop your broken CSV file. Works with Coinbase, Binance, Kraken, and the other exchanges on our supported list.
Step 2: AI Analysis
Our engine analyzes your file and detects:
- Missing dates or amounts
- Duplicate transactions

- Exchange-specific quirks
Step 3: Instant Fix

- Add required columns
Step 4: Export Anywhere

- Koinly

What Makes Us Different
🔒 Privacy First
Your files are processed on our servers in memory, stored encrypted, and deleted within 30 days — sooner if you delete them from your dashboard. We never train on your data.
⚡ Lightning Fast
Most files parse in a few seconds; the API caps a single file at 10MB.
🎯 Deterministic Parsing
Exchange detection, parsing, dates, amounts, and schema mapping are deterministic code with a fixture-backed test per verified exchange — not a model guessing. When a row can't be parsed with confidence, you get a flag, not a confident wrong number.
💰 Transparent Pricing
A free plan with no credit card, and paid plans that add volume. No per-file surprises.
Pricing
- Free plan: 25 files a month, no credit card
- Paid plans from $29/mo: more monthly volume; bank PDF parsing and deeper AI insights start at $99/mo — see pricing

Questions?
Q: Do you support my exchange? A: We support Coinbase, Binance, Kraken, KuCoin, Gemini, and more — see the full list, which marks each exchange verified or beta.
Q: Is my data secure? A: Your CSV is uploaded to our servers and processed there, not in your browser. It's stored encrypted, never used for training, and deleted within 30 days — sooner if you delete it from your dashboard.
Q: What if TaxFormatter can't fix my file? A: Tell us which exchange and send the headers (never the rows) — failed parses are logged by source and reason so recurring failures become test fixtures, not anecdotes.
Q: Can I try it before paying? A: Yes. The free plan parses 25 files a month, no credit card required.
