Widgetbench is a collection of single-purpose utilities. Each one does exactly one job, loads in a second, and computes locally — what you type stays in the page. No account, no upload, no export gate, and no advertising on the site today.
On the bench
Count the working days between two dates, or add and subtract business days from one. US federal holidays are computed from the statutory rules rather than a stored table, so the answer is right for any year — including the Saturday-holiday rule that closes federal offices on the Friday before, and the banking calendar that does not follow it.
More tools are being added. Each new one has to clear the same bar as this one: a real calculation people get wrong, done completely, with the edge cases explained rather than hidden.
These are not thin front ends over an API. The arithmetic happens in JavaScript in your browser, so there is nothing to send, nothing to log and nothing to leak. You can check it in your browser's network tab.
There is no account, no email wall, and no version of a tool that computes an answer and then asks for something before showing it. Every tool is complete on the page it lives on.
Where a tool depends on published rules, those rules are implemented from the primary source and linked at the point of claim, so results cannot quietly go stale as years pass.
Plain dealing
There is no advertising here today, and that is a fact about the calendar rather than a principle. The intended way this site pays for itself is display advertising, placed around the written explanations rather than inside the tools. None exists yet. When it does, it will be visibly separated from the tools and disclosed, and it will not be allowed to change what a tool computes or what an explanation says.
There are no reviews, ratings, testimonials, user counts or trust badges on this site, because there is nothing real to put in them. A number invented to look established is a lie whether or not anyone checks it, so none appears.
Aggregate page views are counted; your inputs are not. A single one-pixel image records that a page was viewed and, separately, that a tool produced a result. It carries a handful of fixed labels identical for every visitor — no cookie, no identifier, and none of the values you typed.
Common questions
Once a tool page has loaded, yes. The calculation needs no network, so the page keeps working if the connection drops. The only outbound request is the one-pixel view counter, and a failed pixel changes nothing about the result.
The dates and values you type are processed in your browser and are not transmitted, so nothing is disclosed to this site by using a tool. Whether a given page is permitted on a given network is a question for the people who run that network, not one this site can answer.
Yes, without asking. Each tool page documents its own embed snippet. The embedded copy keeps a small credit link and loads no third-party code into your page.
Widgetbench is produced with AI by an automated publishing system, with human review. That is stated plainly on every page rather than tucked away, and the method's specific weakness — restating a source confidently while having misread it — is why every rule a tool implements is linked to its primary source and the logic is covered by tests.
