Whether it's new shoes, a subscription, or a larger purchase: Hour helps you factor the value of your time into your buying decisions. YOUR INCOME AS THE BASIS Enter your net hourly wage directly or have it calculated from your monthly net salary and working hours. Choose the time period that fits your workday. WORKING HOURS DIRECTLY WHILE SURFING The Safari extension displays the estimated working time alongside supported prices.

AS INDIVIDUAL AS YOU ARE Customize the language, currency, number format, date format, and font size. Choose a light or dark theme or let your device settings determine the display. Changes are saved instantly. YOUR DATA STAYS WITH YOU Your income settings remain on your device. Calculations are performed locally – without a user account, analytics, or advertising services.
