Austin, Texas

A money studio, not a classroom

We sit on Congress Avenue and build calculators for the numbers on a U.S. paycheck — 401(k) match, credit-card APR, student loans, rent that just jumped.

Built around one idea: show the math

Most money sites either sell you a card or bury the useful part under a lecture. Moneyinfo stays narrower: a working calculator for the decision in front of you, and a short article on how 401(k)s, Roth IRAs, and U.S. credit cards actually work — without steering you toward a bank or a fund.

Every calculator uses published financial math, shown next to the result. We are based in Austin and write for U.S. households: FICA on a pay stub, employer match, federal student loans, and the high-yield savings APY your bank just advertised.

What guides how this site is built

Transparent math

Every calculation shows its formula. If a number doesn't match your own math, you can see exactly why.

No product to sell

Moneyinfo doesn't sell financial products, and calculators don't steer results toward a recommendation.

Plain language

Guides are written to explain concepts the way you'd explain them to a friend — not to impress.

Nothing stored

Calculators run entirely in your browser. The numbers you enter are never sent anywhere or saved.

Kept current

Guides and tools are reviewed periodically so the reasoning stays aligned with common financial practice.

A starting point

Moneyinfo informs decisions — it doesn't replace a licensed advisor when your situation calls for one.

How the content gets made

Each article starts from how U.S. money actually works — 401(k) contribution limits, FICA, federal student loans, FDIC-insured savings — not from a classroom outline or a product pitch. Calculator formulas are the same ones used in brokerage worksheets.

Common questions

No. We publish calculators and articles. We are not a registered investment advisor and we do not manage money. For taxes, estate work, or a messy 401(k) rollover, talk with a licensed CFP or CPA in your state.

Each calculator uses a standard, published financial formula, shown next to the result. Results are estimates based on the inputs and assumptions you provide — actual outcomes depend on real-world factors like fees, taxes, and rate changes that vary by provider.

No. Every calculator runs entirely in your browser — nothing you enter is sent to a server or stored.

Guides and calculators are reviewed periodically to keep the underlying reasoning aligned with standard financial practice.
