Free calculators for freelance hourly rates, project fees, retainers, and profitability. Enter your numbers, see the math, and use the result to plan. No account required.

Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1.
