Hey Product Hunt community! 👋

I'm Kamal, creator of PennyRatio (https://pennyratio.com/). I'm super excited to share this project with you all today! 🚀

💡 Why I Built PennyRatio

Like many of you, I love playing with numbers when planning my finances. But every time I searched for simple tools—whether to calculate my FIRE timeline, estimate paycheck taxes, or check mortgage payments—I ran into the same frustrating obstacles:

  • Forced Account Sign-ups: Pages requiring an email address just to show a basic calculation result.

  • Paywalls & Trial Traps: Useful features locked behind expensive monthly subscriptions.

  • Ad-Cluttered & Clunky Interfaces: Slow sites filled with pop-ups, trackers, and confusing layouts.

I wanted a clean, fast, and completely transparent place where anyone can answer their money questions instantly. So, I built PennyRatio—a collection of free, lightweight personal finance calculators designed with privacy and clarity at its core.
