About TallyTools

TallyTools is a collection of small, fast tools for the everyday questions people search for: how many words is this, how many days until that, what's 15% off, what will this loan cost me. Each tool does one job, works on any phone or computer, and needs no account or download.

Everything runs in your own browser. Text you paste into the word counter, photos you compress and passwords you generate never leave your device, so the tools are safe to use with private material.

Alongside the tools, our guides explain how each calculation works, with the formulas and worked examples, so you can check the answer and understand it, not just copy it.

TallyTools is built and maintained in Melbourne, Australia by Carmine Cecere. More about who builds it, or suggest a tool you'd like to see.
