How we build our tools
Each tool turns a common rule of thumb or official guideline into a quick answer: paint coverage from manufacturers’ labels, water and food amounts from Ready.gov, stride length from published height ratios, and so on. Every tool page explains its assumptions and links to its sources. Results are estimates, so round up when it matters. Spot a problem or want a tool we don’t have? Tell us.
