About this extension
TimeCost quietly converts every price you see online into the number of hours you'd need to work to afford it.
Set your hourly rate once (it never leaves your browser), and TimeCost scans any page — subscription pages, shopping sites, course platforms — and adds a small badge next to each price showing its real cost in your time.
Why it matters: prices are abstract, but hours of your life are not. Seeing "$15.99/mo = 2.3 hours" changes how you think about recurring subscriptions.
Features:
- Works automatically on any website, no per-site setup
- 100% local — your salary and browsing data are never sent anywhere
- Optional playful mode comparing prices to everyday items
- Lightweight, no background tracking, no ads
Open source, no account required, no telemetry.
