I've released a free tool for processing files for the IRS FIRE system that can be accessed here: https://gitlab.com/caiyos-public/fire-1099-gen.
Here's a brief description of the project:
Fire-1099-gen allows you to generate IRS FIRE-formatted files. Currently only 1099-NEC files are supported.
Form data is entered into JSON files which are validated and processed by the application. The output file (which contains a single string of ascii characters) can be uploaded through FIRE.
