The MVR (Minimum Viable Rate) Calculator is a 100% free, client-side tool designed specifically for freelancers and solo-founders.
Calculating your hourly rate based on a standard 40-hour work week is a trap that leads to burnout. This calculator reverse-engineers the exact minimum you need to charge per billable hour by factoring in unpaid time off (vacations, sick days), non-billable admin work, hidden business expenses (software subscriptions, hosting), and estimated taxes.
Stop underpricing your work. Plug in your financial goals and realistic constraints to find the baseline rate you need to survive and thrive. Zero sign-ups, no ads, completely private.
