Why these tools are free

Every tool here answers one question a group runs into on a trip — who owes what, how much something costs at home, who is bringing the stove — and nothing else. They run entirely in your browser: there is no account, nothing you type leaves your device, and once a page has loaded it keeps working without a signal.

They are free because they are the small version of what Lumela does for a whole trip. When a calculator stops being enough — the group wants everyone to add expenses from their own phone, or a checklist the whole group can tick — the app is there, and it is free too.
