Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I built RateCraft because way too many talented freelancers severely underprice their services[cite: 3, 4]. Most people just pick an hourly rate at random and completely forget to factor in self-employment taxes, business subscriptions, non-billable admin time, and paid time off[cite: 3, 4].
With RateCraft, you plug in your actual expenses and target income, and it instantly gives you your true minimum hourly baseline, a packaged monthly retainer, and proposal-ready copy to send to clients[cite: 3, 4].
It’s completely free to run a few simulations[cite: 3, 4].
Take it for a spin and let me know if the pricing math aligns with your industry standards! 📊
