About Us

Welcome to Hours Calculator, a modern productivity utility built to make shift calculations simple, instant, and completely private.

Our Mission

Most time sheet calculators on the web today are outdated, heavily cluttered with disruptive third-party advertisements, and sluggish. We designed Hours Calculator to offer a premium, developer-grade alternative:

  • Zero Friction: Calculations occur reactively as you type. No reload or calculate button required.
  • Zero Tracking & Cookies: We respect your privacy. No personal data, tracking metrics, or analytics tools are stored or transmitted.
  • Vercel-inspired Aesthetics: A clean, high-contrast, modern UI that works beautifully across all desktop and mobile devices.

Core Features

The calculator is equipped with robust utilities to handle real-world payroll needs:

  • Midnight Boundary Crossing: Auto-detects and calculates overnight shifts (e.g. 10 PM to 6 AM) without requiring manual split rows.
  • Visual Span Timeline: A dynamic SVG progress bar that maps out shifts and lunch break segments in real time.
  • Local Shift Logs: Save, name, edit, and delete multiple shifts to compile weekly working hours.
  • Wage Estimation: Compute gross estimated earnings immediately by adding an hourly rate multiplier.

Open Source & Technology

Hours Calculator is built as a static Astro-based site using Tailwind CSS. All data is persisted locally in your browser's localStorage, meaning your logs never touch our servers.
