You're probably overpaying on your taxes. Now you can just ask.
Forecasts is live. Type a financial question in plain English and Nino builds the financial model in seconds. Then stress test it: retire two years earlier, buy the house first, markets drop.
Until today, getting financial advice meant asking friends, Googling, hiring a wealth manager, or even asking your bank.
That’s why today we’re launching Forecasts.
Ask any financial question and forecast the outcome.
Try Nino free for 7 days.

Been a @CoinTracker customer since 2017 and a seed investor since 2018. Same team just launched Nino: a dedicated CFP + CPA backed by AI that sees your whole financial picture. A family office for EVERYONE.

I’ve been an early beta user of Nino and have been really impressed by how user obsessed the team is. They even took me out to dinner just to hear my feedback (although given they’re a YC company, maybe I shouldn’t be surprised :) ).
One of the biggest promises of AI is democratizing access to expert level intelligence for life’s most important decisions. Personal finance is one of them.
Everyone should have an AI financial advisor by their side helping them make better decisions for their future & their family.
This is a category traditional software never fully cracked, but it feels perfectly suited for the AI era. The team behind @CoinTracker is uniquely suited to solve it, given their years of experience building the leading crypto tax service.
Highly recommend trying Nino. Bonus: membership comes with pro tax planning at competitive rates.
Today I made one of the hardest decisions I've made as CEO. We reduced our team at CoinTracker by about a third.
The people leaving today built CoinTracker. They shipped through multiple crypto cycles, built the products millions of users rely on, and did the hardest work during the hardest years. I'm deeply grateful to them.
What's changing:
1. We're concentrating on what we do best. CoinTracker is the market leader in crypto tax compliance. Millions of users, hundreds of thousands paying, and deep partnerships with the platforms our users already trust. The job is far from done. We're investing to keep raising the bar for our users and the industry.
2. We're taking a focused shot at a bigger opportunity. We see a real chance to build AI-native products that go beyond crypto tax, serving a broader financial life.
3. We're shaping the team for what's next. AI is reshaping how software gets built, and the team we need from here is smaller, more focused, and AI-native from the ground up.
Every impacted employee is receiving 12 weeks of severance, 3 months of fully subsidized health care, equity cliff waivers, laptop retention, and a tax season bonus. If you're hiring and want to meet some of the sharpest people in crypto and fintech, reply to this post or DM me.
CoinTracker has years of runway, a strong balance sheet, and a clear focus: making crypto tax compliance seamless for users, exchanges, tax platforms, and tax professionals. We're not going anywhere. More on what's ahead in the coming months.

I've been deep in 1099-DAs while designing CoinTracker's new matching experience. There were a lot of small design decisions and tradeoffs to get it right.
As more tools start supporting these forms, here are a few things I'd recommend checking before you pick a tool and file.
Jon Lerner retweeted
Crypto taxes are harder this year. 1099-DAs are new, cost basis is showing up as "unknown," and it's stressful for hundreds of users we've spoken with.
Our goal this year was to give CoinTracker users peace of mind around 1099-DAs with just a few clicks in our product.
Here are the two biggest challenges we've heard from beginners and experienced traders and what we've built to help 👇
Making crypto legitimate and mainstream means taking the hardest problems and making them disappear for users.
Crypto taxes are one of the gnarliest – and we’re making them seamless.
Proud to partner with @coinbase to deliver this to millions of users.

Tax season is here.
Two things to know:
- There’s a new tax form this year
- We’ve partnered with @CoinTracker to get you all the tools you need to make the process as easy as possible
Pay your taxes, folks.

Sorry for the jump scare.
This is the first year the IRS is standardizing crypto tax reporting. So we’ve teamed up with @CoinTracker to make it easier for you.
Especially with the new form, Form 1099-DA. 🧵
Jon Lerner retweeted
This is what happens when founders build for themselves first.
@CoinTracker started because @ChandanLodha and @jon_lerner needed it. 8 years later, they're serving millions of users and just dropped a dope rebrand.

Crypto tax season is about to get very real.
Millions of people will receive 1099-DAs they don’t understand, across exchanges they’ve forgotten about, with missing cost basis.
We launched our biggest brand campaign yet to meet people in that moment with clarity instead of noise.
Calm > chaos.

Big milestone for crypto tax clarity.
💼 1099-DAs are here, the biggest shift in crypto tax reporting in a decade, and @CoinTracker is ready.
We rebuilt our platform to ingest, reconcile, and turn fragmented 1099-DA data into IRS-ready filings.
No surprises. No guesswork. Just confidence. 🚀
