Its Deductible

Thanks for your help, .  Please work with Turbo Tax to find a way to import your files automatically.  It literally took me 2 DAYS of manual entry to re-type in everything I had already typed in from ItsDeductible for 2025's Tax Return.  Any tracking product, in order to be useful, needs to be able to be imported AUTOMATICALLY into Turbo Tax without manual re-entry of individual items.  Thanks for your efforts building a new software tracking program! 

One more suggestion: More differentiation of prices other than just all clothing items = $8 because Goodwill or Thrift Stores differentiate prices by item type (shirts, pants, skirts, etc.).

 I understand your plea for  to work with TurboTax but, frankly, that would be an exercise in futility as the developers simply don't take notes. If it's going to happen it will happen without any input from a user or users. 

I know the devs are aware that many users want that functionality so, hopefully, they'll work on the implementation.

 - you gave some good suggestions and I have updates - this were quick changes to make in the app. 

• clarity on uploading additional photos - you can still click the "X" to close out of the original photo, but based on your feedback from this morning, we've added in some photo upload buttons below the previously uploaded image to make it easier to get your next photo uploaded (screen grab below with an orange marking of the new buttons)

• category changes - great suggestion on the category editing. You can now click on the category and select another option (e.g. if "Boys Ski Jacket" is in the clothing category and you want it in sports instead, you can change it). These category changes will also be preserved for your exports.
  
  
• clothing items - I'm curious about what you're seeing on your end. We have thousands of items in the ItsDeducted catalog and this is always growing because of how the product is built. Each item in the catalog has it's own valuation across New, Good, and Fair conditions (example of some clothing items below).  These are purposefully kept close to how ItsDeductible assigned condition-specific values.

Please keep the feedback coming!

And, I/we welcome feedback for any other former ItsDeductibe users - we really want to make ItsDeducted the easiest/fastest donation tracking tool for everybody, so appreciate any input/feedback.

, I was hoping for detailed items like your Boys flannel shirt list item you screen shotted, but all I got was 15 Clothing items all valued at $8 each.  Maybe because my clothes were all folded in piles instead of laid out so the AI couldn't tell what they were???.  If so, you should give directions about how to take pictures so that the AI can get the level of detail needed to differential different clothing items.

- that's likely it. Appropriate caveat - AI is really good at this (and getting progressively better with newer models), but it isn't perfect. If everything is folded in a pile where there's very little surface area (e.g. only a narrow sliver of a clothing item), it's possible the AI just doesn't have enough context to discern one item from another. There's not really a right or wrong to taking a photo as long as a human could look at everything for the first time and be able to quickly identify what everything is.

The example I mentioned earlier (where I had ~45 items identified ) - these were a bunch of miscellaneous items that were strewn across the table as we were helping downsize my in-laws' home - I had taken a lot of single-item and multi-item photos with ItsDeducted as we were building, but this was really the test to see how much it could identify.

Hope that helps!
