# Audit Training Stipends Against Statutory Minimum Wage Hours — Free

Internships and educational trainee placements often provide lump-sum stipends that sound generous initially but fail to satisfy statutory minimum wage requirements once scheduled hours are totaled. Enter your weekly scheduled hours, periodic stipend payments, and the statutory minimum wage rate to calculate the cumulative wage deficit.

**Free and complete.** This guide is a standalone free tool — no account, no card, anywhere. The only paid option is one optional extra outcome: $4 one-time. Nothing in the free tier is gated.

## Who it's for

Interns, trainees, students, and employers evaluating Fair Labor Standards Act minimum wage compliance.

## What's free

- one complete unwatermarked stipend-wage audit run in the app
- three labeled samples and unlimited article-demo calculations
- complete result text and a user-triggered input-state link

## Optional paid add-on

**$4 one-time.**

- unlimited subsequent stipend-wage audit app calculations after a local convenience signal
- print the stipend-wage audit with visible assumptions and its safety boundary
- CSV of the displayed dollars and row workings; conditional estimate uses your manual-retyping minutes
- five local reading summaries (headline/count/time), not saved full inputs or cross-device backups
