How these calculators work
Every tool on this site is a static page with a little JavaScript. There is no account and no server-side form. The figures you type are not sent anywhere; if you refresh the page, they are gone. That is intentional for a first version. When you want a plan that lasts, copy the totals into a Kotlets planner.
The trip budget and ski trip tools let you choose the unit for each line — per night, per person, per day, or a single total — so you can type the number you were actually quoted. The group splitter nets what each person paid against their share and then settles the balances with as few payments as possible. The savings tool divides what you still need by the time left, using average calendar months so a year is twelve months.
Results are estimates for personal planning. They are not a quote, and they do not replace official prices, opening dates or insurance advice. There is a short how-to and a FAQ on each calculator page if you want the method in words as well as in the form.
