About How Much Does It Cost?

See any price in your currency with real-world comparisons — coffee, lunch, hotel, rent, work hours. Free & private Chrome extension, 8 languages.


Stop doing mental math. This extension automatically detects prices on any web page and shows you two things: the exact converted amount in your currency, and what that price actually means in your country.

A $50 hotel in Thailand isn't just 1,800 THB — it's 2 days of rent. A $1,200 iPhone in Turkey isn't just ₺39,000 — it's 546 lunches. The extension gives you both the conversion and real-world comparisons based on cost-of-living data for 193 cities across 95 countries.

  • 💱 Real-time currency conversion — 160+ currencies via open.er-api.com

  • 🥤 Quick compare — coffee, lunch, hotel, rent based on local prices

  • ⏰ Hours of work — see any price in hours of your work

  • 🌍 8 languages (EN, RU, DE, ES, FR, JA, ZH_CN, KO)

translating a price into days of rent instead of just converting the number is the actual insight here, the conversion never tells you whether something's expensive.

Hey! I built this because I got tired of constantly Googling exchange rates and still having no clue if something was actually expensive or cheap. What clicked was visiting Thailand and realizing $50 felt totally different once I knew it was 2 days of rent locally. So I made an extension that does the math for you — automatically, on any site, with real-world context. Freemium, completely private (zero data collection), and already works in 8 languages with 160+ currencies. Would love to hear w
