UNCHANGED IN SUBSTANCE -- both halves re-verified 2026-08-19. First, the transaction cap is LIFETIME, not annual: "Each CoinTracking plan has a different transaction limit based on the total number of transactions imported across all years. This means that all historical transactions count toward the limit, ensuring that your complete trading history is accurately analyzed for comprehensive tax calculations." (https://cointracking.info/pricing/) -- a ten-year history burns Starter's 200-transaction allowance on day one, so the $49/EUR39 entry price is a fiction for anyone with real history. Second, and worse for a legal record: stop renewing and you can no longer produce the report you already paid to produce. The free state is portfolio-view-only -- on 2026-09-29 the pricing page reads "Tax reports require a paid plan." and "new transaction imports also require a paid plan" -- so the 2025 Form 8949 you generated in 2026 cannot be regenerated in 2029 when an examiner asks, unless you are paying again. And section 6 of the Terms lists "User account inactivity exceeding 12 months" as cause to terminate, after which "CoinTracking will delete the data stored by the User 30 days after the termination of the User Agreement." Export the Roll Forward / Audit Report to CSV while the plan is live, or the derived record sits on a clock you do not control.

Portable record and prior year access — 6/10
Tradeoff
The $49 is a lifetime-transaction toll, not a this-year toll, and the caps that decide your bill are published only inside a PNG. Ledgible's own words: "Pricing is based on the total number of transactions you've made from the beginning of your transaction history to the end of the current tax year date (rather than annual transactions)" (support.ledgible.io/hc/en-us/articles/4405478844045, updated 2026-08-09). A filer with eight years of history and four trades this year is priced on all eight years. The base tier is also far narrower than the pricing page admits — "The basic package starts at $49 and includes up to 2 wallets and 1 exchange in their data sources with up to 200 transactions." (article 360058705432); that 2-wallet and 1-exchange limit appears NOWHERE on ledgible.io/pricing/, whose own base-tier image says only 'Tax-year reporting and up to 200 transactions'. (The pricing page does print '2 wallets', but inside an Enterprise Accounting usage example, not as the $49 cap — do not read it as the consumer limit.) Second, the buyer arriving from the marketing site will find the automation isn't there: the FAQ says "Yes, the Ledgible Platform offers full support for DeFi and NFT trading." while the documentation says "NFT tracking isn’t done automatically on Ledgible, so tracking the activity will be best done manually.", DeFi auto-categorisation covers only Ethereum and Algorand, and "However, income cannot be automatically detected and therefore transactions that are to be taxed as such must be designated by the user." — so every staking reward, airdrop and fork is hand-labelled. Third, and most expensive to discover late: this is a US-only filing artefact whose US rulebook is stale. Rev. Proc. 2024-28 wallet-level basis allocation is not mentioned once in 277 knowledge-base articles — while Ledgible's institutional whitepaper explains the rule in detail, so the silence is in the consumer product, not in the company. The FIFO/LIFO/HIFO guidance still cites the superseded IRS Virtual Currency FAQ Q39-41, and the preparer instructions still assert crypto is 'not currently reported on 1099s' in the first Form 1099-DA season.

Score dimensions

weights sum to 86

The published score is five dimensions, each weighted for the category. "Published criteria" is the criteria block above; the other four are the engine's own terms — availability, friction, trust record, measured data. Each bar is one side's points out of that dimension's maximum; the weight beside the name is its points of the 86-point weighted total. The published criteria above can fill 24 of the block’s 30. A weight marked “constant here” belongs to a dimension every ranked product in the category holds at the same value: it still counts in the total, and it orders nothing here.
