Do you want to make the world better?
We want to help people make better decisions that rely on numbers, not intuition. If you’re a scientist, educator, NGO worker, advocate of a social cause, or a professional who wants to use our calculators, we’d love to collaborate with you. And we’ll do it for free.
We create calculators that use scientific and statistical formulas to help explain various phenomena. We can build a calculator that will help your research, devise a collection of calculators for a topic that you are teaching, quantify the issue that you are trying to solve, and engage others in your cause.
In a nutshell - if you too think in algorithms, we can help turn them into interactive tools that will highlight your research and share it with the world.
To combat misinformation within the media, we created a free guide for journalists on reporting numbers correctly. Our scientists wrote this guide with journalists from CNN, Rappler, and The Asset Magazine. It was then reviewed by Professor Yvonne Chua, a veteran journalist and associate professor of journalism at the University of the Philippines.

Here’s some of what we’ve been up to so far
We have collaborated with medical experts, physicists, professors, statisticians, financial advisors, and both PhD graduates and candidates in different fields.
- Hanna Pamuła, a PhD candidate created the Plastic Footprint Calculator, which helps you monitor and lessen your plastic consumption. For this, we partnered with Prof. Małgorzata Grodzińska-Jurczak of Jagiellonian University, the head of the QUIT PLASTIC Project, who shared recycling tips to maximize the benefits of our calculator.
- We partnered with Małgorzata Koperska, MD, who created the Coffee Kick Calculator, that was based on a study done for 10 years on U.S. Soldiers. The algorithm from that study helps people adjust their caffeine habits to optimise their performance.
- Łukasz Białek, MD, and Dominik Czernia, PhD candidate created the Car Heat Calculator, which educates others on the dangers of leaving children and pets inside a car for a period of time.
- With quantum physicist Miłosz Panfil, PhD, we discovered how to boil the perfect egg using science. He based it on a study by Dr. Charles Williams of the University of Exeter.
- Dominik Czernia, PhD candidate created the Perfect Pancake Calculator that not only helps you create the delicious dish, but uses a formula that is also used for glaucoma treatment. The theory came from scientists at University College London.
- With Tibor Pál, double PhD candidate and Hanna Pamuła, PhD candidate, we raised awareness of the pay gaps within males and females of different ethnicities in various occupations.
- Together with experts from Krakow Smog Alert (Krakowski Alarm Smogowy), we built a Smog Calculator that shows you how polluted the air in different cities is in terms of the equivalent number of cigarettes smoked.
- Together with animal nutrition expert Olga Lasek, PhD, we built the Dog Nutrition Calculator - a tool that helps dog owners set up healthy, balanced diets for their pups to keep them fit and healthy.
- The Polish charity Różowa Skrzyneczka (Pink Box) helped us create the innovative Kalkulator Kosztów Miesiączki (Period Cost Calculator). Together, we are working on increasing the Polish public’s knowledge about period poverty and related problems.
- We teamed up with Taren Gesell, renowned triathlon specialist, to create the Triathlon Nutrition Calculator. With its help, you can learn to plan your triathlon meals to make sure you are participating in peak condition.
- In cooperation with EEWeb, Álvaro Díez created a series of calculators that are liketly to be of interest for all technology and electronics geeks. This includes a wide range of tools, such as PCB Impedance Calculator and Impedance Matching Calculator.
- Professor Wojciech Jurczak, MD, lent his medical expertise to help us create the Mantle Cell Lymphoma International Prognostic Index Calculator. Thanks to professor Jurczak’s knowledge, the tool can serve as an aid in assessing the risk groups of patients diagnosed with mantle cell lymphoma.
We are ready to collaborate with you. Let’s make the world better with numbers!
