Three promises we design against

01

The answer is above the fold

No cookie wall between you and a number. No advert inside the tool. The first thing on the page is the thing you came for.

02

It works on the bus

Everything computes in your browser. Once a page has loaded it keeps working with no signal, and nothing you type is sent anywhere.

03

Every answer has a link

Your value lives in the address bar, so you can send the result itself rather than instructions for reproducing it.
