The Problem

Thousands of gig drivers in the Greater Toronto Area work for Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, and other platforms — but most have no idea if they’re actually making money. Platform earnings look good on the surface, but after factoring in fuel, maintenance, depreciation, insurance, and taxes, many drivers are earning below minimum wage.

Existing tools are either US-focused, overly complex accounting software, or generic spreadsheets that don’t account for Canadian tax rules.

The Solution

Stattraq is a free web app that calculates true hourly earnings after ALL costs:

  • Vehicle costs: Depreciation, fuel, insurance (OPCF 6C), tires, maintenance
  • Tax calculations: 2025 Federal + Ontario tax brackets, CPP at 11.9%
  • Opportunity cost: Comparison to Ontario minimum wage ($17.20/hr)
  • Platform comparison: Compare profitability across Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, and more
