loadmate vs TowCalc

Every trip starts with the same quiet question: are we under our ratings, and how do we actually know? loadmate answers it with one number. RigScore checks your whole rig, truck, trailer and everything you load, against your weight ratings and shows a 0–100 score with the working shown. Green means your numbers sit inside every rating. Anything less shows you what's over and what moves it, in plain language. Built on the numbers that matter in North America: GVWR, GCWR, GAWR, payload, tongue weight and pin weight, the same terms as your door placard and your scale ticket. WHAT'S IN THE APP Can I Tow It? Free for everyone. Shopping for a travel trailer, fifth wheel or tow vehicle? Enter the specs and see whether the combination works before you sign anything. No account needed. Your rig, profiled once. Truck and trailer specs, dry weights and ratings, hitch position, storage zones. Set it up once and the system runs underneath every screen. Cargo, where it actually rides. Assign gear to storage zones in the trailer and the truck. loadmate works out tongue weight and axle loads from where things sit, not just what they weigh. See the change before you make it. Shift 50 lb from the truck bed to the front compartment and watch tongue weight, axle loads and your RigScore move, before you touch a thing. Weigh-ins that stick. Pull onto a truck-stop scale once, enter the figures, and your baselines update. The score's confidence reflects how current your data is. Tire intelligence. Pressures, age and load margins are watched in the background and raised only when they matter. Maintenance, warranty and trips. Service items, warranty coverage and trip planning stay connected to the same rig profile, so nothing is tracked twice. Exceeding your ratings can complicate warranty claims, loadmate keeps your numbers where you can see them. More than one rig. A travel trailer and a boat, or two tow vehicles, switch setups and everything re-scopes. DESIGNED FOR PEOPLE WHO TOW Plain language, big touch targets, nothing buried two menus deep. If you currently run your weights on a spreadsheet, this will feel like an upgrade, not a learning curve.

See every towing limit at once, before you leave the yard. TowCalc turns your tow vehicle ratings, your hitch ratings and a trailer weight into a clear read on how safely you are loaded. Enter the numbers off the door jamb label and a scale ticket, and the app checks every limit and tells you how much headroom is left. WHAT IT DOES - GVWR: the loaded vehicle against its rating, with the payload you have used and what is left. - GCWR: the vehicle and trailer together against the combined rating, with headroom to spare. - Tongue weight: the percent on the ball against the healthy 10 to 15 percent target, and the exact weight to aim for. - Axle and hitch checks: the combined front and rear axle rating, and the hitch tongue and trailer ratings, for a weight carrying or a weight distributing setup. - Largest trailer: the single biggest trailer this rig can pull, with the weakest link named, whether that is the combined rating, the payload, or the hitch. - Clear warnings the moment any limit is passed or the tongue is too light or too heavy. - Metric or imperial throughout: pounds or kilograms. SAVE YOUR RIGS Save each truck as a profile and keep the trailers you tow as loads under it. Reopen a rig in one tap, compare loads on a chart across your history, and watch the app grow more useful the more you tow. Nothing leaves your iPhone. LOAD PLACEMENT GUIDE See how to shift the load to land in the tongue weight target, and an estimate of how the tongue adds weight to the rear axle and lifts it off the front, from your wheelbase and hitch overhang. Practical loading tips included. FREE AND PRO The full single calculation is free, forever. The one-time Pro unlock adds saved vehicle profiles and loads, the load placement guide, and export. There is no subscription: pay once and keep it. PRO EXPORT Export a per-rig PDF tow sheet with the ratings and every load, and a CSV of your whole library, straight from the share sheet. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no cloud, no tracking. Every rig you enter stays on your device. TowCalc is a planning aid, not a certified weight. Always confirm actual weights on a certified scale and follow your vehicle and hitch ratings before towing.
