GigBooks started from one observation. Platform and gig work turn a person into an entrepreneur, but nobody built the running of that business into that person's phone.

Wolt, Bolt and Uber couriers, hairdressers, photographers and freelancers billing by the hour do the same work as any other entrepreneur: they earn, pay costs, watch the VAT threshold and file a tax return. The difference is that they do it in ten-minute pieces between shifts, on a phone, often in a different language from the official guidance.

The existing tools were built for an office. An accountant costs a meaningful share of a courier’s monthly income. Generic bookkeeping software assumes you know what a voucher is and what a VAT period is.

GigBooks does three things differently.

It speaks the worker’s language. Shift, gig, payout, invoice, receipt. The accounting concepts live inside the app, not on the user.

It brings routine calculations together. The app helps you follow VAT, YEL and advance tax alongside your bookkeeping. The website calculators provide illustrative estimates with their own stated assumptions; your circumstances determine the final figures.

It respects the Bookkeeping Act. Confirmed entries are never edited. A correction is a new entry, and the chain stays visible. Receipts stay attached to the entry for the whole retention period.

GigBooks is operated by Insightish Labs Oy. We build it with couriers and freelancers. When something is not right, tell us: privacy@gigbooks.fi answers ordinary questions too.

Bookkeeping built around a sole trader's day.
