Job Value Calculator
Turn salary, commute, hours, and benefits into an hourly rate and a job-value score
- Problem
- Many people keep asking themselves whether the pay is worth it, but converting a monthly salary into an hourly figure while accounting for commute and overtime loss is hard to do in your head. Income trends and raise history end up scattered across notes.
- Solution
- A web/mini-program calculator: enter monthly salary, work hours, lunch break, commute, and benefits to see live earnings for the current shift, hourly rate, commute-adjusted loss, and an overall job-value score. It also tracks multiple jobs and raises, with an income calendar heatmap and trends.
- Users
- Employees, job seekers comparing offers, and young workers who want to quantify their job's real value.
- MVP
- Salary and shift input with live earnings; hourly rate and commute-loss calculation; job-value score; raise and work-history records; income calendar heatmap.
- Revenue
- Free basic tier; subscription for multi-offer comparison, income trend reports, and shareable export cards.
- Why now
- Under economic pressure, 'is this job worth it' is a high-frequency conversation. Existing tools either stop at hourly rate or only do countdowns, without folding in commute and benefits.
