About this tool

Calculate exactly how much you should charge per hour as a freelancer. Factor in business expenses, taxes, vacation time, and billable hours. Hourly Rate Calculator runs in the browser on DevTools. There is no signup, and your input stays on this device unless the tool explicitly performs a live network lookup.

What this tool does not do

  • Hourly Rate Calculator is a free in-browser utility, not a hosted API. It does not keep server-side history and is not a substitute for production verification in your own stack.
