Every free paycheck calculator I tried either wanted my email, pushed me toward a "free consultation with an advisor," or was built in 2004 and unusable on a phone.
So I built one that doesn't. Enter salary, pay frequency, filing status, and state — it breaks down federal tax, Social Security, Medicare, state tax, and 401(k)/health deductions instantly. Everything runs in your browser; nothing is sent anywhere and there's no signup.
I also added a few things I wanted myself and couldn't find free anywhere:
- Compare two states side by side (useful if you're thinking about relocating)
- Compare two job offers after tax, not by gross salary
- See what a raise is actually worth after tax
It's free — funded by ads, which is why I'm not asking for your email.
Happy to take feedback on the tax math or anything that looks off. Link in the comments to respect the self-promo rules.
