When Intuit announced the discontinuation of its popular ItsDeductible app, many taxpayers were left wondering how they’d track their charitable donations come tax season. For years, ItsDeductible made it easy to record non-cash donations, estimate fair market values, and simplify reporting for tax purposes — until it suddenly wasn’t available anymore.
That’s where That’s A Write-Off was born.
Developed by Jacob Fitzpatrick, a Northern California-based software developer and founder of Fitz Designz, this new platform was created to fill the gap left behind and make charitable record-keeping simple again.
The Inspiration
As both a tech professional and someone who values organization and efficiency, Jacob relied heavily on ItsDeductible to keep his personal donation records tidy year after year. When Intuit announced it would sunset the app in 2024, there was no real alternative that offered the same combination of convenience, reliability, and accuracy.
So, Jacob decided to build one himself.
With a background in web design, digital marketing, and custom software development, he envisioned an application that would not only replace ItsDeductible — but improve upon it.
What That’s A Write-Off Does
That’s A Write-Off helps users:

- Estimate item values based on condition and category, just like ItsDeductible used to do.
- Upload receipts securely for record-keeping and verification.
- Generate detailed PDF reports for easy tax preparation and submission to your accountant.
