When running numbers for a home mortgage or a wage adjustment, users shouldn't have to sacrifice speed or personal privacy.

I built The Apex Calc to deliver a distraction-free, privacy-first financial workbench that runs natively in the browser.

Key Tools Available:

  • Mortgage & Amortization Calculator: Real-time breakdown of monthly principal, interest, taxes, and complete schedule projections.

  • Hourly to Salary Wage Converter: Fast conversions across hourly, weekly, monthly, and yearly earnings with overtime modeling.

  • Compound Interest Forecaster: Projection of long-term wealth accumulation and periodic contributions over multiple decades.

Technical Architecture:

  • Pure Client-Side Math: Built with vanilla JavaScript, HTML5, and responsive CSS. Calculations happen locally with zero server roundtrips.

  • Zero Tracking: No tracking pixels, user fingerprinting, or paywalls. Sensitive monetary inputs never leave your device.

  • Instant Performance: Sub-second execution deployed globally on Netlify's edge CDN.

Looking forward to feedback on new calculator modules and interface improvements!
