True Cost – Is It Worth It?
The true price of anything — in dollars and hours worked
How many hours did you actually work to afford that purchase? True Cost is a Canadian personal finance calculator showing the real pre-tax cost of any purchase — factoring in your marginal tax rate, HST, and take-home pay. Converts costs into hours worked so you can spend with clarity. ✅ Federal + provincial tax brackets ✅ Personal & business expenses ✅ Every province ✅ One-time purchase, no subscription
Hey PH! 👋 I'm Luc, a Canadian indie developer and the person behind this app. I built it because I kept making purchases without really understanding what they cost me in actual working hours after tax. The math is surprisingly eye-opening.
Would love your honest feedback — what features would make this more useful for you? Happy to answer any questions about the Canadian tax logic behind it.
