Comparison

Atlas Labs vs Koinly

Koinly is the market leader for crypto tax filing. Atlas Labs is built around a different question — not "how do I file?" but "where are my books?". This page sets the two side by side on the dimensions a serious user evaluates.

Where Koinly wins

We are not pretending to be better at every dimension. These are the cases where Koinly is the right call.

Koinly catalogues more individual exchanges and DeFi protocols out of the box. If your priority is breadth of pre-built integrations and you do not need a chart of accounts, Koinly is faster to set up.
Koinly has a longer track record. If you have already filed multiple years through it, the migration cost matters — Atlas Labs supports CSV import from Koinly to ease the switch but the historical lots will need verification.
