Hustlay splitting one shared bill across three projects
The short version
Hurdlr offers a Premium tier for expenses, mileage and tax estimates and a Pro tier for invoicing, accounting and financial reports; its website does not list prices, so check the app for current plans. Hustlay is a profit dashboard: every income stream gets its own P&L, shared bills are split by percentage and logged hours become profit per hour. Hustlay has no automatic bank feed or GPS mileage detection.

Who should pick Hurdlr, and who should pick Hustlay

Pick Hurdlr if…

You want automatic mileage and expense capture with live tax estimates, and optionally invoicing and accounting for a bookkeeper.

Pick Hustlay if…

You want one P&L per client or side hustle, shared costs split fairly and profit per hour, without bank connections.

Fair is fair

What Hustlay doesn't do

  • No automatic bank feeds — you add transactions, scan receipts or forward receipt emails.
  • Not double-entry accounting, payroll or tax-filing software. Exports go to your accountant or tax tool.
  • No one-click importer from most other tools yet; moving over means starting fresh or adding history manually.

TL;DR

Our honest take

Pick Hurdlr if you want bank-connected tracking, tax estimates and full accounting reports. Pick Hustlay if you run several income streams and want to know which ones pay, with shared costs split and hours turned into profit per hour.
