About ClearFigures
ClearFigures exists because the existing UK freelancer tax tools are frustrating to use. Most are either years out of date, buried under ads, or ask for your email address before showing you a single number. We built a suite of free, fast calculators that do what they say — instantly, without asking for anything in return.
What we built
Eight calculators covering the most common financial questions UK freelancers and contractors face:
- VAT Calculator — add or remove VAT, including the flat rate scheme
- Mileage Calculator — HMRC approved rates with 45p/25p threshold split
- Invoice Generator — create and download a PDF invoice, no signup
- Day Rate Calculator — convert between day rate and salary equivalent
- IR35 Calculator — compare Ltd, umbrella and PAYE take-home
- Ltd vs Sole Trader — see which structure is more tax efficient
- Self-Assessment Estimator — estimate your tax bill before you file
- Dividend Calculator — find the optimal salary and dividend split
Every calculator is updated for the current tax year. All calculations run in your browser — nothing is sent to any server.
Our approach
No signup. No email capture. No paywalls. The tools are free to use and always will be.
We try to be honest about what these tools are — estimates, not advice. Tax is complex and your specific circumstances always matter. Every calculator includes a disclaimer and we always recommend verifying figures with a qualified accountant for anything consequential.
The calculations use HMRC's published rates and thresholds, updated at the start of each tax year. All rate values live in a single configuration file so every calculator updates simultaneously when rates change.
