About Carry
Carry is on a mission to help our customers grow wealth by paying less in taxes. We use smart strategies, tax-advantaged investing, and personalized planning to get them there. We started with the Solo 401k for self-employed business owners and are rapidly expanding our suite of products across investing and tax.
