platformtaxhub-mcp

An MCP server exposing three free platform-income calculators from Platform Income Utils as tools any MCP-compatible AI agent can call directly.

All three tools reuse the exact same math as the live web pages, so an agent's answer never drifts from what a human sees on platformincome.com.

Tools

take_home_pay_calculator

Take-home pay after platform fees, optional ~2% currency-conversion cost, and optional per-withdrawal transaction fees, across 18 gig/creator/freelance/ecommerce platforms. Mirrors take-home-pay.html.

list_take_home_platforms

Lists every platform id/name/fee structure take_home_pay_calculator accepts.

platform_payout_calendar

For one or more platforms, returns the next expected payout-initiated date and bank-arrival date (payout date + regional transfer delay, pushed off weekends). Fetches live data from the same source as platform-payout-calendar.html, so newly-added platforms or corrected schedules show up automatically with no server redeploy needed.

list_payout_platforms

Lists every platform id/name/verification-status platform_payout_calendar accepts (live from the same data source).

benefits_safety_net_calculator

For gig workers, freelancers, creators, sellers, and hosts with no employer benefits, calculates a monthly self-funded health + retirement set-aside (default 5%, split 60/40), plus an optional emergency buffer. Mirrors benefits-safety-net.html.

list_benefits_countries

Lists every country benefits_safety_net_calculator accepts, with its currency.

currency_takehome_calculator

The genuine differentiator tool: combine earnings from several platforms, each in its own currency, into one converted total via whichever international-account provider (Wise, Payoneer, Airwallex, etc.) nets the most money for your country — using live exchange rates. Most free take-home-pay calculators only handle one platform and one currency at a time; this one is built specifically to answer "I earn from five platforms in three currencies, what do I actually end up with?" Mirrors currency-takehome.html.

list_currency_takehome_countries

Lists every country code currency_takehome_calculator accepts.

list_platformtaxhub_tools

Lists every other free calculator on platformincome.com, including the ones not wrapped as their own MCP tool here (mileage deduction, tax deadline clock, fees comparison, and more) — so an agent can point a user to the right free tool even when the question doesn't fit one of the tools above.

Install & run

npx platformtaxhub-mcp

Or add it to your MCP client config (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "platformtaxhub": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "platformtaxhub-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

No API key or account required — every tool here is free, matching the free tools on platformincome.com.

Development

npm install
npm run build
npm start

src/data.ts holds the platform-fee table and country/currency tables, ported verbatim from the corresponding <select> options and JS objects in take-home-pay.html and benefits-safety-net.html. If those change on the live site, update data.ts to match. platform_payout_calendar has no static table to maintain — it always fetches live from the same n8n webhook the calendar page uses.
