Derives an hourly (or day) rate from annual cost structure, unproductive days, and a configurable tax model.\n  - Includes JSON presets + import/export.\n\n- **Retainer Tier Evaluator** (`tools/retainer-tier/`)\n  - Compares retainer tiers by MRR/ARR, effective rate, reserved capacity, and contract knobs (discount, overage, notice, term).\n\n- **Freelancer-ROI-Check** (`tools/freelancer-roi-check/`)\n  - Checks the ROI of a replacement decision based on ramp-up productivity, mentoring overhead, procurement hours, and optional cost-of-delay.\n  - Includes JSON presets + import/export.\n\n## Run locally\n\nNo build step. Any static server works.\n\n```bash\nnpm install\nnpm run vendor:sync\nmake check-tools-json\npython3 -m http.server 8080\n# open http://localhost:8080\n```\n\nAfter Dependabot updates, run `npm install`, `npm run vendor:sync`, and `make check-tools-json`, then briefly test the static site locally.\n\n## Notes / disclaimer\n\nThese tools are for modeling and decision support. They are **not** tax/legal advice and they may use simplified assumptions.\n\n## Adding a new tool\n\n1. Create a new folder under `tools/\u003cyour-tool\u003e/`.\n2. Add a `tool.json` file inside that folder (required keys: `title`, `description`; optional: `tags`, `order`).\n3. Run `make tools-json` to regenerate `tools.json`.\n4. Commit your changes.\n\nOn GitHub, a workflow regenerates `tools.json` on pushes to `main` (and verifies it on pull requests).\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Faplgr%2Fbusiness-toolbox","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Faplgr%2Fbusiness-toolbox","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Faplgr%2Fbusiness-toolbox/lists"}
