MileIQ Review

Microsoft-owned mileage tracker that auto-logs every drive and generates IRS-compliant reports with a single swipe — purpose-built for agents who want maximum deductions with zero manual logging.

Starting at Free (40 drives/mo); $11.66/mo billed annually

MileIQ Pros

  • Automatic drive detection needs zero manual input — classify each trip business or personal with a single swipe
  • One-tap IRS-compliant mileage reports export as PDF or CSV, ready for Schedule C or reimbursement claims
  • Named-location auto-classification pre-labels frequent drives (office, staging locations) to cut daily admin time
  • Microsoft-backed platform trusted by 1M+ active users, with enterprise-grade security and long-term reliability

MileIQ Cons

  • Tracks mileage only — no expense categories, income logging, commission tracking, or profit-and-loss reporting
  • No integrations with QuickBooks, real estate CRMs, or transaction platforms; data export requires a manual PDF/CSV step
  • Free tier capped at 40 drives/month — active agents typically exceed this in days, requiring the paid plan at ~$140/year
  • GPS-dependent drive detection can miss short trips when iOS battery optimization kills the background app refresh

Product Overview

MileIQ is a Microsoft-owned automatic mileage tracker that appeals most to solo agents and small teams who want effortless IRS-compliant reporting without manual logging — just swipe each drive business or personal and export at tax time. It outperforms narrower competitors like Everlance and TripLog on simplicity and brand reliability, but its narrow scope is a real limitation: MileIQ tracks miles and nothing else, so agents still need a separate tool — QuickBooks, Realtyzam, or Stessa — for expense categorization, commission accounting, and income reporting. There are no integrations with real estate CRMs or transaction management systems. The free tier's 40-drive-per-month cap is too restrictive for active agents in busy markets, pushing most users onto the $11.66/month plan. Brokers managing agent reimbursements will find the team dashboard useful, but won't get commission splits or trust accounting here.
