What We Do

HourlyBreak builds free financial calculators for workers, job seekers, and employers. Our tools answer the questions people actually ask: Is this offer fair? How much will I take home? What does this salary mean in practice?

We cover salary conversions, take-home pay (with real federal and state tax data), mortgage payments, loan amortization, freelance rates, overtime, and more — in English, French, and German.
