MileLog vs Ramp Mileage Reimbursement

MileLog is a mileage and expense tracker for US professionals, including freelancers, contractors, small businesses, and realtors. It detects drives and records them in the background, then lets users classify business and personal trips by swiping. The app generates IRS- and CRA-formatted mileage reports in PDF and CSV. Users can photograph receipts and record parking, fuel, and vehicle maintenance expenses linked to business trips; MileLog also tracks bridge tolls, highway passes, and toll road fees alongside mileage. It is available on Android, iOS, and the web. The Basic plan costs nothing, includes unlimited miles, and limits cloud trips to 15 per month. Premium costs $6.99 a month and adds advanced classification, IRS-ready reports, direct email reports, trip categorization, and 7x24 customer support. Unlimited tracking is available during a free 7-day trial, with cancellation available anytime. MileLog says it collects precise location data with permission and encrypts personal data in transit and at rest.

Ramp Mileage Reimbursement tracks employee trips, calculates reimbursable distance, applies mileage rates, and routes claims for approval. Employees can record trips with live GPS, calculate routes through Google Maps, or enter mileage manually. The service can deduct commuting miles when required, and policies can require a memo or trip purpose and use multi-layer approvals; submitters cannot approve their own expenses. Approved reimbursements are paid by ACH or international wire, and Ramp says most arrive within three business days. Built-in local mileage rates are available for the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, France, Spain, Australia, Ireland, and Poland. Approved claims sync automatically to an accounting provider, with listed integrations including QuickBooks Online, Xero, NetSuite, Sage Intacct, and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. The product runs on web, iOS, and Android. Ramp offers a free plan for domestic reimbursements and a 30-day trial; paid plans start at $15/user/mo, plus a platform fee based on team size for Ramp Plus. The product is aimed at finance teams handling employee mileage within corporate spend.
