About UrsaClimb

Our Mission

UrsaClimb provides free calculators, trackers, and planning tools across 180+ life domains. Calculate your mortgage payment, track your fitness progress, plan debt payoff, optimize your nutrition, and manage every aspect of your life—all in one place. Plus, stay informed with AI-powered news digests.

The Problem We Solve

Modern life requires tools across dozens of domains: mortgage calculators for home buying, TDEE calculators for fitness, debt payoff planners for financial freedom, meal planners for nutrition, workout trackers for training progress.

But these tools are scattered across hundreds of websites, buried in ads, locked behind paywalls, or simply don't exist. You're forced to bookmark 50+ sites, switch between apps, or build spreadsheets from scratch.

UrsaClimb solves this. We provide free, ad-free calculators and tools across 180+ verticals—all in one platform. Plus, we keep you informed with AI-powered news digests so you can make better decisions.

Our Principles

Free & Accessible

Every calculator, tracker, and planner is 100% free. No ads, no paywalls, no hidden costs. Premium tiers add specialized features, but core tools are always free.

Vertical Depth

We don't just cover finance or fitness—we cover 180+ verticals. Mortgage calculators, TDEE trackers, debt payoff planners, meal planners, workout logs, and hundreds more.

AI-Enhanced

Our news digests use DeepSeek R1 to synthesize information from 168+ sources. Stay informed across all your verticals without reading hundreds of articles.

Privacy-First

Your calculations, preferences, and data belong to you. We use behavioral data to improve your experience, never to sell to advertisers.

Always Improving

We're constantly adding new calculators, improving existing tools, and expanding to new verticals based on user feedback. Your needs drive our roadmap.
