The Freelance Rate Calculator
WhatToCharge answers the one question every freelancer, service provider, and maker eventually asks: how much should I charge?
Pick your trade, set your experience, region, and job size, and the free calculator returns a defensible price range with the reasoning behind it, not just a number.
It covers more than 195 trades, from house cleaning, pressure washing, and lawn care to wedding planning, bookkeeping, freelance writing, and graphic design. Each trade page shows typical rates, what moves the price up or down, and a short pricing FAQ. A growing library of guides covers rates, earnings, and how to start a business in each field.
The whole thing runs on one rule: real ranges, transparent method, no invented data. Most people who work for themselves are underpriced. WhatToCharge exists to fix that.
