Don't know if they're a mega corp, but FreeTaxUSA has been great for me. Free for simple federal tax returns.

They are part of the Free File Alliance lead by Intuit that lobbied to prevent the IRS from creating their own free tax filing tool.

Not like we have much choice when it comes to free tax filing until IRS gets their direct file up and running for all.

Intuit helped found it but they left it in 2021.
