About TimeIsMoney.tools

Free productivity calculators that make the time-money connection visible. No login. No pop-ups. No dark patterns.

What this site is

TimeIsMoney.tools is a growing suite of single-purpose productivity calculators. Each tool answers one question quickly and honestly: how much did that meeting actually cost? What's your raise worth in real terms after inflation? What's a fair freelance hourly rate? Each page does one thing well and gets out of the way.

How it's built

Everything runs in your browser. We don't send your salary, meeting details, or any other inputs to a server — the tools are pure client-side maths. The site is a static Astro build with a handful of Svelte islands for the interactive bits. Locale support covers the US, UK, Australia, Canada, and Europe, with currency and working-hour assumptions matching each country's official data sources (ONS, BLS, ABS, StatsCan, Eurostat).

Who's behind it

I'm Pete, a UK-based software developer. I built TimeIsMoney.tools because I kept wanting calculators like these and couldn't find versions that were fast, free, and ad-light. It's a side project — built in evenings, maintained in spare hours, and supported by minimal non-intrusive advertising plus the occasional coffee tip from kind strangers.

What's live

Six tools are live. The Pay Raise Calculator shows whether your raise actually beat inflation; the Salary Converter turns any salary into hourly, weekly, and monthly; the Meeting Cost Calculator tracks the real-time cost of a meeting; plus a freelance rate calculator, a time-zone overlap finder, and an invoice generator. Each ships when it's genuinely useful, not before.

Monetisation (honestly)

The site is supported by a small number of non-intrusive ads and the occasional Ko-fi donation. Ads will never sit between tool input and result, there will never be pop-ups, and the tools themselves will always be free. If you find this useful, sharing a link is the kindest thing you can do.
