Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built Obolus after noticing how often international job offers get compared by gross salary alone.
But €60k in Germany, Austria or Ireland can lead to a very different monthly reality once taxes, housing, healthcare and everyday costs are included.
Obolus turns that decision into one guided flow:
→ calculate take-home pay
→ compare rent and cost of living
→ see what actually remains each month
→ turn the result into a budget and longer-term savings outlook
It currently supports 8 countries. Under the hood, the same payroll/tax engine is also available through a public API and MCP.
I’m especially interested in feedback on two things:
Does the flow from salary → tax → housing → monthly remainder feel intuitive?
Which country or relocation scenario would you want to compare next?
Thanks for taking a look — especially if you’ve ever had to decide whether an offer abroad was actually worth it.
