About SalaryBrain

SalaryBrain is an independent project focused on practical salary and personal finance tools. We built this site to help people answer everyday money questions quickly: What is my real take-home pay? How much rent can I afford? What freelance rate actually covers my costs?

What we publish

Most pages on SalaryBrain combine two parts: a calculator and an accompanying explanation. The calculator gives an estimate based on your inputs. The article content explains the key assumptions, tax rules, and trade-offs so you can use the estimate responsibly.

Who this is for

Our audience includes remote workers, freelancers, job changers, and anyone comparing income across countries or regions. We prioritize plain language, fast loading pages, and practical guidance over financial jargon.

How we make money

SalaryBrain is free to use. To support hosting and maintenance, we may display ads and include clearly labeled affiliate links on selected pages. Sponsored or affiliate placements do not change our calculator formulas or editorial recommendations.

Our principles

• Use transparent formulas and clearly stated assumptions.
• Prefer primary data sources and official documentation where possible.
• Keep calculators free and accessible on both desktop and mobile.
• Update content when tax rules or key benchmarks change.

Important limitation

SalaryBrain does not provide legal, tax, or investment advice. Calculator outputs are estimates and may not reflect your full personal situation. For decisions with legal or tax consequences, consult a licensed professional in your jurisdiction.
