Income, expenses and tax obligations in one place.

Content work has its own tax specifics

Platform income doesn't look like an ordinary Czech invoice. General-purpose tools needn't account for that — Danito does.

  1. Payouts arrive monthly in different currencies, for a period the platform closes — not you.

    Danito records platform payouts as a distinct type of income, converts them at the Czech National Bank rate on the date of supply, and ties them to a specific channel or profile.

  2. Part of your income comes from platforms, part from direct clients, and each enters your taxes differently.

    Separate records for client invoices and platform income, so both land on the right lines of your return and reports.

  3. VAT thresholds and identified-person registration are easy to miss.

    Danito tracks turnover, watches the registration thresholds and prepares the materials for your VAT return, control statement and EC Sales List.

What you can do with Danito

Five areas where content work differs from ordinary business — and where Danito saves you effort and mistakes.

Platform income and the CNB exchange rate

Record a payout from YouTube, Twitch, Patreon or Substack in its original currency; Danito converts it at the Czech National Bank rate on the date of supply, records the foreign platform's withholding tax and the payout cadence. Income stays tied to a specific channel or profile.

Client invoicing

Issue invoices to direct clients in CZK or foreign currency, with the particulars required by Czech law. Invoices and platform income stay separate, so they reach the right place in your return and in the export for your accountant.

Expenses and credit notes

Record expenses for equipment, software and services, upload receipts and handle credit notes and corrective documents. Everything flows into the materials for your tax return and the export for your accountant.

VAT regimes and reports

Danito distinguishes supplies by VAT regime — domestic, reverse charge to EU platforms and supplies outside the EU — and prepares the materials for your VAT return, the control statement in the expected format and the EC Sales List where it must be filed.

How we differ from generic invoicing tools

Generic invoicing tools serve the ordinary Czech sole trader well. Danito addresses the narrow case of creators whose main income comes from platforms — in three respects where a general-purpose tool can't be this specific:

  1. A creator vertical, not a general-purpose invoicing tool

    Danito models platform payouts (YouTube, Twitch, Patreon, Substack and others) as a distinct type of income alongside client invoices. It records the currency, the foreign platform's withholding tax and the monthly payout cadence, and ties income to a specific channel or profile. A general-purpose invoicing tool doesn't know this — it expects you to track these details by hand, outside the system.

  2. Data privacy and self-hosted telemetry

    Transactional e-mail goes through a European provider with good Czech deliverability. Web analytics and error tracking run on our own infrastructure, not third-party tools. We keep cookies to the essential, explicitly listed ones. For a Czech sole trader with European clients, that means fewer third parties in the chain handling personal data.

  3. Czech VAT specifics and annual close

    Turnover tracking for mandatory VAT registration, the control statement in the expected XML format, and the data for the reverse-charge EC Sales List on platforms. Built around the annual close and tax return for a sole trader, not for a VAT-paying company — even though Danito does the latter too.

Your data stays in Europe

Privacy isn't an add-on. Danito is built so there are as few third parties as possible in the chain handling your personal and accounting data.

Frequently asked questions

When do I become an identified person or a VAT payer?
You usually become an identified person as soon as you receive or provide a cross-border service within the EU (typically advertising supplies to EU platforms). You become a VAT payer after exceeding turnover of CZK 2,000,000 over 12 consecutive months, or immediately upon exceeding CZK 2,536,500. Danito tracks turnover and warns you as the thresholds approach.
How is platform income treated for VAT?
It depends on where the platform is based. EU platforms (both YouTube and Google AdSense are operated by Google Ireland) are reverse-charge supplies; as an identified person or VAT payer you report them in the EC Sales List (souhrnné hlášení) and you need the counterparty's VAT ID to do so. For third-country platforms (Patreon, Twitch, Substack and others outside the EU) the place of supply is outside the EU, no EC Sales List is filed, and you report the supply in your VAT return as a service provided outside the EU.
Will my accountant get the data they're used to?
Yes. Danito exports data to Pohoda, Money S3 and ABRA, so your accountant gets a structured import, not a pile of PDFs.
Can I cancel my subscription anytime?
Yes. We bill monthly and you can cancel anytime, with no notice period and no setup fees. The STARTER plan is free forever.
Can I get my data out of Danito?
Yes. You can export your data anytime in a machine-readable format and as materials for your accountant. Your data is yours.
