Know exactly what to charge.
A free, transparent day-rate calculator for freelancers — built from public salary data and a clear methodology, so you charge a fair rate and never underprice yourself.
Sourced benchmarks
Rates are built from public data — ONS, the BLS and contractor-rate trackers — and always shown dated, with the source.
A real methodology
We show the full working: income, unbilled time, overheads, pension, tax and margin — not a number pulled from thin air.
Anti-underpricing
The calculator flags your break-even and warns you when the market — or your own number — slips below what it costs to deliver.
