Price an Appliance From Its Own Duty Cycle — Free, Before You Replace It

The free tier is the whole tool: every field, every state, the state link and one complete un-watermarked run. The one-time layer adds the printable copy and the local history shelf; it never removes or degrades the free result.

GratisAI priced our freezer from its duty cycle and our tariff — $212 a year, with the replacement paying back in fourteen months.
Boundary: This estimates running cost from figures you enter; it is not a metered measurement, it does not predict tariffs, and it excludes standing charges, time-of-use bands and maintenance. Use your own bill for the rate and treat the annual figure as an estimate.
