United States work-value tools

Start with the decision, then test the numbers.

Understand what your work is really worth — pay, working time, unpaid hours, commuting and job trade-offs. Each tool keeps your inputs in your browser and exposes assumptions, formulas, limitations and its applicable source scope.

Local coverage is still partial. This directory remains outside search indexing until the registry records established local coverage; Global tools stay visibly separate from verified United States policy-backed tools.
