Jim Atkins is the founder of Atkins Media, LLC and the managing editor of Payroll Tax Calc. A mobile and web app developer by trade, he has shipped 16 mobile apps to the iOS App Store and builds web applications used by everyday consumers to understand their own money.
He started Payroll Tax Calc on a simple conviction: a precise paycheck tool should be free, unlimited, and never gated behind an email address. Every article and study on this site is reviewed by Jim against the primary sources — IRS Publication 15, the annual revenue procedure, and state revenue department schedules — before it publishes. If a figure here ever conflicts with an official source, that is a bug, and it gets fixed.
Beyond payroll, Jim builds content technology: he is the creator of ClipMorph.ai, a content-creation platform, and writes about software and media at atkinsmedia.io.
