Free tools
Free calculators and generators for running a photography business
Five small tools that answer the questions photographers ask before they ask about software: what to charge, how much storage a year of work needs, what a stack of subscriptions really costs, what a free plan’s fee adds up to, and how to get an invoice out the door today. Every result comes from the numbers you type. Nothing is uploaded and no account is needed.

Do I need an account to use the tools?
No. They run in your browser and nothing you type is stored or sent.
Where do the Galerly numbers in the tools come from?
From the same pricing API the pricing page uses, so plan prices, storage and the payment fee can never drift from what checkout charges.
Can I suggest a tool?
Yes, through the contact page. Tools get built when the question behind them comes up often enough to be worth a page.
