Check Freelance Hourly Rate Minimum Floor (Option B)
Freelance project quotes often forget non-billable administrative hours and tax overhead. Add overhead buffers to check your real hourly rate. (Option B scope).

Input is processed locally and a draft is saved automatically in this browser profile when storage is available. Reset to sample clears that draft; Pro history has its own clear button. A state link encodes your inputs in its URL: share only non-sensitive rows. Browser history, clipboard and anyone receiving the link may retain it. Optional AI use below leaves this device; it is not required.
Data note: Everything runs in this browser tab on the overhead-rate register: your service offer | estimated project hours | base rate per hour stays on this device, nothing is uploaded, and the reading is rebuilt only when you press run.
Perspective: Before: Proposal writing, invoicing, and client emails consume up to 30% of work hours. After: the overhead-rate register shows the working beside each named row so the reader can change the assumption and inspect the consequence.

Optional AI formatting, not calculation
For this overhead-rate register, use the free AI Studio interface only if available to you, with no paid API key. Manual entry completes the same workflow for free. Supply only fictional or non-sensitive notes. Review its output against the source; never paste unresolved questions into the numeric rows.
Format my non-sensitive notes for a overhead-rate register. Return plain rows only: service offer | estimated project hours | base rate per hour. Preserve supplied quantities exactly. Do not guess missing values; list questions separately. Do not calculate or add advice. I will check every row before pasting into the local tool.
Accepted schema: service offer | estimated project hours | base rate per hour. No AI response is executed as code.
