Where donations go
New calculators
Researching accurate formulas and building the next tool — axle load, cargo securement, and more are on the list.
Accuracy upkeep
Checking formulas and reference figures against current manufacturer and industry standards.
Hosting & domain
Keeping the site fast, ad-light, and running on a proper domain rather than a free subdomain.
Why donate to a free site?
Ad revenue covers basic costs, but it doesn't fund the research time that goes into a new calculator — verifying formulas, checking reference figures against manufacturer specs, and testing edge cases before it goes live. Donations are what let new tools get built faster, and let existing ones stay accurate as standards change.
A few honest notes
- Donations are voluntary support for an independent site — they are not tax-deductible, since this isn't a registered nonprofit.
- The calculators are and will remain completely free to use whether or not you donate.
- Donating doesn't remove ads or unlock anything — it simply funds ongoing development.
