This MCP takes the guesswork out of your cash flow. Instead of staring at a gross income number and hoping you have enough for the IRS, you can ask your AI client to calculate precise tax reserves for every invoice you receive. You can also plan for the long term. If you need to buy new gear or cover a lean month, you can set specific savings goals and have your agent figure out the monthly contribution required to hit that target. It also helps you look ahead by forecasting how your savings will grow based on your planned incoming payments. You can even run a quick check to see if your current bank balance is actually enough to cover your known tax liabilities and upcoming business expenses. It turns your AI client into a dedicated financial planner that understands your specific freelance math. ## Tools ### analyze_reserve_sufficiency This tool checks if your current savings balance covers your known tax liabilities and expense goals. ### calculate_projected_savings_timeline This tool forecasts how your savings balance will grow over a series of planned future payments. ### get_expense_reserve_requirement This tool calculates the amount you need to set aside from gross income to hit a specific expense funding goal. ### get_tax_reserve_per_invoice This tool determines the exact tax amount you should set aside from a single incoming invoice. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` I just received an invoice for $5000.
