Popular calculators
The six calculators freelancers and creators reach for first.
Hourly Rate
Work out the hourly rate you actually need to charge as a freelancer — based on your target income, business costs, time off, and billable percentage.
1099 Take-Home Pay
Estimate what you actually keep from 1099 income after self-employment, federal, and state tax, using your own rates — plus a monthly take-home figure.
Day Rate
Work out the day rate you need to charge as a freelancer or contractor — based on your annual income target, billable days per year, and business costs.
SE Tax
Estimate your 2026 US self-employment tax — Social Security and Medicare on your net profit — plus the deductible half you claim on Schedule 1.
YouTube Earnings
Estimate what a YouTube channel could earn from ad revenue alone, based on monthly views and the typical RPM range for your content niche.
Project Price
Turn an hours estimate into a fixed-price project quote — with a risk buffer for scope creep and room for licenses, assets, or subcontractors on top.
