Rates & quotes

Your day rate, and the total of a quote.

What it does

Two calculators for freelancers: the day rate to ask for, and the total of a quote. No document: just the right numbers.

• My rate: from the net income you want per year. Taxes and social charges are a share of what you earn: type your own (it depends on your country and status). Fixed costs: gear, software, insurance, studio… per year.
• Billable share: not every working day is billed (prospecting, admin, training, quotes). 60 to 70 % is a common habit, not a rule.
• Quote: days × day rate, plus gear and expenses, minus a discount, plus VAT, and the deposit to ask for. Use my rate takes the rate from the first tab.

Free, no account, nothing is sent: it runs in your browser, even offline.
