Our Mission
Independent musicians deserve clear, honest information about their revenue potential. This calculator helps artists make informed decisions about which analog format to press based on real market conditions and true profit margins.
How It Works
The calculator uses industry-standard pricing data for vinyl, cassette, and CD production. It factors in platform fees (Bandcamp, Discogs), production costs, and your marketing budget to show net profit after all expenses.
Enter your planned inventory and distribution percentages. The calculator shows projected sales, revenue, and profit for each format. Use the preset buttons to model small tours, local releases, or full pressings.
Our Values
- Transparency: All assumptions are shown clearly. No hidden formulas.
- Simplicity: Complex finance reduced to what matters for your next release.
- Privacy: Everything happens in your browser. No accounts, no tracking.
- Independence: Built for artists by people who understand the struggle.
