What makes Polyconomic different?
The short version: you should be able to see your taxable gain without paying for a subscription. Most crypto tax tools disagree. We do not.

The honest version
Established crypto tax tools do more. They have been around longer, support more countries, and have larger teams. If you need US tax forms, or you are managing a portfolio across 40+ countries, they may be the better choice.
What we do well: HMRC compliance, plain English output, and a pricing model that does not require an annual subscription just to see your gain. If you are a UK crypto holder who wants to understand their tax position without paying a lot to do it, that is what we built.
