About CalcoPolis
Why did we build this website?
CalcoPolis started back in 2020 as a simple side project to make our daily work easier.
We’ve always liked numbers, but constantly double-checking results, re-deriving formulas, and looking up definitions felt like a huge time sink. So we built a few small tools to automate the boring stuff — and suddenly we were using them several times a day.
That’s when it clicked: if these tools made our work faster and more accurate, they could help a lot of other people too.
So we decided to keep going — adding more calculators and writing clear, beginner-friendly guides to explain how each tool works and how to make the most of the results.
Our mission
We want to make decision-making easier — whether it’s for business, finance, or everyday life. CalcoPolis exists to help you handle numbers confidently, without wasting time on complicated math.
Our approach
Most big challenges can be broken down into smaller, manageable parts. The tricky part is that each one often needs different skills — expertise, logic, creativity, and yes, solid math.
That’s where our calculators and articles come in. Each tool combines:
-
a calculator that handles the complex math for you, and
-
a guide that explains what the results mean and how to use them in real life.
Our goal is simple: give you reliable, easy-to-use tools that save time, cut through complexity, and help you make smarter decisions — one calculation at a time.

CalcoPolis is built by practitioners who use numbers every day. Below you’ll find who creates and reviews our tools, what they specialize in, and how we keep content accurate and up to date.

Our plans
We’re growing fast — and we’re just getting started!
Right now, CalcoPolis offers nearly 200 calculators covering topics from business and investing to everyday budgeting and math. And that’s only the beginning — we already have over 100 new tools on our development list, waiting to be built, tested, and released.
But our plans go far beyond adding more calculators. We’re constantly improving the user experience — making the site faster, clearer, and easier to use on any device. We're also introducing new features that will help you save results, compare scenarios, and explore data in a more visual, interactive way.
Our goal is simple: turn CalcoPolis into a place where anyone — from students to business owners — can quickly find the right tool, understand the numbers, and make smart decisions with confidence.
We love hearing feedback and new ideas. Every message or suggestion helps us make CalcoPolis better — so don’t hesitate to reach out and tell us what you’d like to see next!
