Honest projection · estimated
US Tax Revenue Today (est.)
A projection of how much the US federal government has collected in taxes and other receipts since midnight UTC, ticking at its most recent complete-year total — $5.235 trillion in fiscal year 2025 — spread evenly across the year. Real receipts arrive in bursts around filing deadlines, so this is the yearly pace made visible, not a live feed. It ticks slower than the spending counter beside it; the difference between them is the deficit being borrowed every second. The economies this sits inside are one tap away in Atlas.
About this number
This is an honest projection, not a census. It is computed by carrying a published figure forward at a known rate over real elapsed time — ≈ $166,000/sec (≈$14bn/day), from US Treasury — total federal receipts $5.235 trillion in fiscal year 2025, spread evenly across the year. The source is US Treasury (Fiscal Service) FY2025. The true value is known only to within a margin; this is the running estimate, and we label it as one.
