I&#x27;ve used TurboTax the past few years, and completely echo the sentiment expressed by others regarding the hidden charges that get tacked on when starting with a &quot;free&quot; return. Turned out that losing money on the stock market also cost me extra on preparation fees as well...<p>Partly because of the negative experiences with TurboTax, my co-founder and I just launched a company [1] in this space. We&#x27;re actually &quot;replacing&quot; a TurboTax product that was recently discontinued called &quot;Personal Pro&quot;. We&#x27;re something of an &quot;Uber&quot; for tax preparation, acting as an online marketplace and platform for clients to get their taxes done by professionals. TurboTax had tried this for a few years but it appears they&#x27;re betting on a continuing shift to DIY.<p>Has anyone had any experience here as a client of Personal Pro? Would love to hear how it went!<p>[1] - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.taxaroo.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.taxaroo.com</a>
