Products
A small family of tools, each with a job.
Every one runs on its own site. Prices are on the product, not here, so what you read there is what you pay.
Gideon Tax
Honest IRS e-file for businesses and tax professionals
Excise returns (Forms 2290, 720 and 8849), the employment-tax series (Forms 940–945), information returns and more, e-filed straight to the IRS. Prices are stated before you start, every return is checked before you pay, and a person reviews what the software cannot.

How we work
Plain prices, plain words, and a person who answers.
We are a small software company, not a consultancy. What we sell is the products above; nothing is billed by the hour.
Questions, a bug, or a form you wish we filed? ian@gideonsolutions.us
- The price is on the page
- Every product states what it costs before you start, in one sentence, with no tiers to decode and nothing added at checkout.
- No upsells, no ads
- Software should do the job it was bought for. None of ours nags, sells your attention, or holds a feature back to sell it later.
- A person still checks
- Automation does the arithmetic; a person reviews what it cannot judge. A tax return goes to the IRS checked, or it does not go.
- Built to last, in house
- Small products, kept simple on purpose, and maintained by the people who wrote them.
