// Consultou? Guides, calculators and official shortcuts
Brazil's government portals are fragmented, slow and login-heavy. Consultou pulls vehicle tax (IPVA), FGTS, income tax, Bolsa Família, micro-entrepreneur (MEI), social security and more into one place: up-to-date guides, calculators that run in your browser, and direct shortcuts to the official portals. No taxpayer ID, no login, no runaround.
You don't have to hunt across five different government sites. Consultou explains each service with the current tax-year data, runs whatever can be calculated right there, and sends you straight to the right official portal when the final step has to happen on Gov.br.
Search "IPVA RS", "FGTS anniversary withdrawal" or "income tax refund" and land on a page explaining the rules, amounts, dates and who qualifies — for the current tax year, updated automatically.
Calculators for IPVA, FGTS, income tax, social security and the MEI monthly tax (DAS) run right on the page, with the correct year's rates and brackets. Nothing is sent anywhere — the math is local.
When the final step is on Gov.br, Detran, Sefaz, Caixa, INSS or the Receita Federal, Consultou points you to the right link — labelled and explained — instead of leaving you to navigate a dozen portals blind.
At launch, Consultou covers the ten services that generate the most search volume in Brazil — with per-state pages where it matters (vehicle tax, fines and driver's license cover all 27 states) and national pages where the service is federal.
Calculator, rates by category, due-date calendar by plate ending, exemptions and duplicate slips. (Annual vehicle tax.)
How to check, file an appeal, license points and amount estimates — with the national Renainf system.
Renewal, suspension and first licensing, with the step-by-step for each state.
Anniversary withdrawal (with calculator), severance, statement and early withdrawal. Brackets by balance, kept current.
Refund calculator, calendar, exemption thresholds and what the "fine mesh" audit is (and how to clear it).
Payment calendar by NIS ending, amounts per component, status check and the CadÚnico registry. (Cash-transfer program.)
Calendar, benefit amount and eligibility rules, explained in plain language. (Cooking-gas subsidy.)
Retirement age and contribution calculator, BPC and sickness benefit, with the payment calendar. (INSS.)
Monthly DAS tax by year, calendar, revenue ceiling and annual return. (Micro-entrepreneur regime.)
Company lookup, registration status and paths to regularization — always via the official portal.
Consultou doesn't replace Gov.br — it organizes, explains and calculates around it. The priorities are speed (mobile-first, almost zero JavaScript on the critical path), correct current-year information, and full respect for your privacy.
The site rolls itself over at the turn of the tax year. When the year changes, calculators pull the new rates and brackets and the content is refreshed — you never see last year's vehicle tax by mistake.
IPVA, FGTS, income tax, social security and the MEI tax all calculate right in your browser, with the current year's data. Nothing you type is sent or stored.
When the final step is on a government portal, the link shows up clear, labelled and explained. We take you to the right door — we never pretend to be the agency.
Search inside the site, built at compile time and running in your browser — no slow server in the loop. Finds "IPVA SP 2026" or "Bolsa Família calendar" in milliseconds.
PWAInstall it as an app from the browser, use it offline, and get reminders before your vehicle-tax due date, your Bolsa Família payment, or your FGTS anniversary month.
An optional weekly digest with the deadlines that matter to you — email only, no taxpayer ID. Unsubscribe in one click whenever you want.
All the content, the calculators and the official shortcuts are free and open — that's the heart of Consultou. Premium arrives later for people who want personalized alerts and reports, but day-to-day use never sits behind a paywall.
// Premium is planned for the post-launch roadmap. Today, everything on consultou.com is free.
Consultou is free because the revenue model is affiliate-based: when a public service connects to a relevant financial product (FGTS early withdrawal, car insurance, opening an account, payroll loans), the site offers the option transparently and earns a commission if you follow through. You never pay for it.
No display ads, no social-network pixels, no cross-site tracking — a deliberate choice to keep the site fast and the reading experience clean.
Consultou is built by HPS Software to the same quality bar as our own products and our client work: static pages served from Cloudflare's edge, a type-safe backend on K3s, content generated and reviewed with AI, and an aggressive Core Web Vitals target — LCP under 2 seconds on mobile.
Public services touch sensitive data — so the Consultou rule is simple: we don't ask for your taxpayer ID, we don't authenticate on your behalf, and we don't store personal data. The math happens in your browser and the official step is always on the government portal, not here.
No calculator or page requires signup, a taxpayer ID or sensitive data. Anything needing authentication happens on the official portal — not on Consultou.
Anonymous, cookieless visit measurement and no third-party cookies. No Meta pixel, no ad network watching your usage — which is why the site doesn't even need that annoying cookie banner.
The newsletter is opt-in and the email is stored as a hash (not plain text). Want out? One click. We never sell or share your list.
Consultou is an independent informational aggregator, not affiliated with any government agency. Amounts are estimates and should be confirmed on the corresponding official portal.
