The given integral is:

\[
\int_0^1 \tan^{-1}(x) \, dx
\]

To solve this, let's proceed step by step:

---

### Step 1: Use Integration by Parts
The formula for integration by parts is:
\[
\int u \, dv = uv - \int v \, du
\]
Here, we'll choose:
- \( u = \tan^{-1}(x) \), so that \( du = \frac{1}{1+x^2} \, dx \)
- \( dv = dx \), so that \( v = x \)

Now apply the formula:
\[
\int \tan^{-1}(x) \, dx = x \tan^{-1}(x) - \int x \cdot \frac{1}{1+x^2} \, dx
\]

---

### Step 2: Simplify the Remaining Integral
The remaining integral is:
\[
\int \frac{x}{1+x^2} \, dx
\]
Let \( w = 1 + x^2 \), so \( dw = 2x \, dx \). This substitution gives:
\[
\int \frac{x}{1+x^2} \, dx = \frac{1}{2} \int \frac{1}{w} \, dw = \frac{1}{2} \ln|w| + C
\]
Substitute \( w = 1 + x^2 \) back:
\[
\int \frac{x}{1+x^2} \, dx = \frac{1}{2} \ln(1+x^2) + C
\]

---

### Step 3: Combine the Results
Now substitute this back into the integration by parts result:
\[
\int \tan^{-1}(x) \, dx = x \tan^{-1}(x) - \frac{1}{2} \ln(1+x^2) + C
\]

---

### Step 4: Apply the Definite Integral
Now evaluate the definite integral from 0 to 1:
\[
\int_0^1 \tan^{-1}(x) \, dx = \left[ x \tan^{-1}(x) - \frac{1}{2} \ln(1+x^2) \right]_0^1
\]

At \( x = 1 \):
\[
1 \cdot \tan^{-1}(1) - \frac{1}{2} \ln(1+1^2) = \frac{\pi}{4} - \frac{1}{2} \ln(2)
\]

At \( x = 0 \):
\[
0 \cdot \tan^{-1}(0) - \frac{1}{2} \ln(1+0^2) = 0 - \frac{1}{2} \ln(1) = 0
\]

Subtract the two:
\[
\int_0^1 \tan^{-1}(x) \, dx = \frac{\pi}{4} - \frac{1}{2} \ln(2)
\]

---

### Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{\int_0^1 \tan^{-1}(x) \, dx = \frac{\pi}{4} - \frac{1}{2} \ln(2)}
\]
