What it does

Employer Cost API calculates the true cost-to-employer for any U.S. worker. It includes employer payroll taxes (Social Security, Medicare, FUTA, SUTA), workers’ comp, employer-paid benefits, retirement match, PTO cost, and full annual and per-period breakdowns. Designed for HR SaaS, payroll tools, finance apps, and startups that need accurate compensation modeling. Simple JSON output, fast responses, and clean developer experience.

Employer Cost API is a production-ready employer payroll cost calculator for the United States. Instead of focusing on take-home pay, the API reveals what a company actually spends on each employee: payroll taxes (Social Security, Medicare, FUTA), per-state SUTA and workers’ comp, employer-paid healthcare/dental/vision, retirement match, and the dollar value of PTO. Built on Next.js Edge functions

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
