The honest loan calculator. 17 tools. One $4.99 purchase. No ads, no tracking, no login. Ever. Built by one developer who got tired of the alternatives. Most loan calculators are storefronts dressed up as utilities. They want your email, your data, or your attention so they can sell it. Penciled wants $4.99, once, and then leaves you alone. Penciled is 17 calculators that cover the loans you actually take out: mortgages, auto loans, credit cards, student loans, HELOCs, construction loans, business loans, and more. Every calculation runs on your phone. Nothing leaves the device. Export full amortization schedules to PDF, Excel, or CSV when you need to show your work. WHAT'S INCLUDED Mortgage and Real Estate - Mortgage payment with PMI, taxes, insurance - Refinance break-even - ARM (adjustable-rate) projection - Affordability (how much house) - Rent vs. buy - HELOC draw and repay - Construction loan - Home equity (invest vs. pay down) Auto and Equipment - Auto loan - Boat and RV - Equipment financing Debt and Credit - Credit card payoff (three strategies) - Personal loan - Student loan - Debt consolidation - Debt strategy (snowball vs. avalanche) PRIVACY No accounts. No sign-up. No email. No analytics SDK. No ad network. No data broker pipeline. The app does not have network permissions for calculation data because it does not need them. If your iPhone is in airplane mode, Penciled works exactly the same. PRICE $4.99, one time, lifetime. Unlocks all 17 calculators and all export formats. If you buy a new iPhone, tap Restore Purchases and it comes back. ADVISOR MODE (OPTIONAL) $19.99/year for licensed mortgage brokers who want branded PDF exports — your logo, NMLS #, brand color, and "Prepared by" footer on every page. 7-day free trial. Completely optional. The core $4.99 Pro tier has everything a consumer needs and always will. EXPORTS Every schedule exports to PDF (formatted for printing or sharing with a lender), Excel (.xlsx with formulas intact), and CSV (for your own spreadsheet work). Useful when a loan officer asks you to show how you got there. WHO THIS IS FOR Homebuyers running scenarios before they talk to a lender. Refinancers checking whether the break-even math actually works. People paying down credit-card debt who want to see the avalanche method in numbers. Small-business owners pricing equipment loans. Anyone who wants the answer without handing over their data. CONTACT joe@equityleveloperations.com I read every email.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Revenued at none against Penciled's 2. Revenued also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). Penciled's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
