Autónomotools

The Spanish self-employment system is famously hard to navigate. Even locals routinely use professional help.

At the same time, that professional help can be of… varying quality. Oversight is spotty. Some advisors have no interest in empowering their clients to understand the system and make their own decisions. Others simply don't have the time budgeted in to explain anything beyond the very basics. And some are simply incompetent.

As a result, most freelancers — autónomos — feel overwhelmed. They have no real insight into their basic financial vitals and often feel like they are at the mercy of whoever's professional help they are using.

Autonomotools exists to empower those professionals — to help them understand the system a little better and plot their own course a little more confidently.

The hourly rate calculator helps find a healthy rate that actually pays the rent long term. The viability calculator gives you an honest idea of how realistic your self-employment plan is in the first place.

The platform is upcoming and runs on Laravel 13.
