Best MileIQ Alternatives in 2026, Honestly Ranked

MileIQ's Unlimited plan reached $13.99/month in May 2026 (or $11.66/month billed annually), roughly double its price from a year earlier, and its free tier stops at 40 drives a month. If that pushed you here, this roundup covers the real alternatives, dedicated trackers, the do-it-manually option, and toolkit products that include mileage. One disclosure before anything else: we make Savi Tools, one of the products below. We've ranked on the numbers and said plainly what each tool is best at, because a roundup you can't trust isn't worth ranking for.

The short version

1. TripLog, the feature-depth pick

TripLog is the closest like-for-like replacement at MileIQ's altitude: multiple auto-start options, commercial and team features, and pricing well below MileIQ's new number (Premium is $4.99/month billed annually, $59.99/year). Honest note: TripLog's free Basic tier advertises unlimited automatic tracking, with reporting and integrations as the paid layer. If you want maximum tracker, TripLog is the safe answer.

2. Driversnote, the simplicity pick

Driversnote keeps the MileIQ virtue: set it, forget it, classify later. Its free tier caps at 15 trips per month, and Pro runs $11/month for unlimited trips, under MileIQ's monthly price. If you liked MileIQ and mostly want a lower bill, start here.

3. Everlance, the mileage-plus-expenses pick

Everlance pairs automatic mileage with expense tracking, aimed at gig workers. The free tier includes 30 automatically detected trips per month with unlimited manual entry, and Starter runs $8.99/month or $69.99/year for unlimited automatic tracking. A middle step between a pure tracker and a full toolkit.

4. Savi Tools, ours, and here's exactly what it is and isn't

Savi Tools is not a dedicated mileage tracker; it's a $0-to-$9 business toolkit where mileage capture (GPS trip capture and manual entry) is free with no drive cap, alongside free expense and receipt capture. The paid part is output: the tax-ready mileage report, invoicing, receipt OCR, CSV exports, profitability reports, and the Tax Set-Aside Calculator on Solo at $9/month, under MileIQ's annual-billing price, covering more than mileage.

Honestly stated trade-off: our drive detection is younger than MileIQ's or TripLog's, and if you want the filing-grade report, that's paid here. If mileage is your whole problem, a dedicated tracker above may fit better. If you're also invoicing clients and guessing at quarterly taxes, this is the one that replaces three tools.

One more differentiator, stated plainly: Savi Tools imports your MileIQ history. Export a report from MileIQ, upload the CSV free on any account, and every business drive is valued at the IRS rate for its date, which MileIQ's own export does not do.

5. The spreadsheet, the option vendors skip

A manual log (date, destination, purpose, miles) meets IRS substantiation requirements at $0. It costs discipline instead of money. If your driving is occasional, a few client visits a month, this is genuinely reasonable, and any of the free tiers above beats it the day your volume grows.

Before you switch from MileIQ, whatever you pick

Export your drive history (MileIQ offers CSV export) before your subscription lapses, and keep the file with that year's tax records, your past log remains your substantiation. Then start capture in the new tool from day one so there's no gap.

We make Savi Tools. Competitor prices retrieved from each vendor's public pricing page on July 28, 2026; tell us if something's stale and we'll fix it. This article is not tax advice, mileage deduction rules are the IRS's, and your accountant is the final word. Never get surprised at tax time.
