About roicue
ROICue does exactly one job: computes return on investment, net profit, investment multiple and CAGR, and can add extra contributions for a money-weighted return. That is the whole of the site. No account, no newsletter, and no wall between you and the number you came for.
The idea behind ROICue
The reason ROICue exists is simple: a tool that does one thing should not need an account, a cookie wall and three scrolls of marketing copy before it shows a number. So this one does one thing — computes return on investment, net profit, investment multiple and CAGR, and can add extra contributions for a money-weighted return — and shows it immediately.
How it works
There is no server in the loop at all. It divides the net gain by the cost for a simple ROI, and for CAGR it takes the ratio of final to initial value to the power of one over the number of years, which is the growth rate that would produce the same end value by compounding, and that description is the real algorithm rather than a simplification of it, so you can repeat the sum by hand and compare the two.
Privacy, by design
This is a local tool by construction. Your cost, final value and holding period never leave your device; there is no endpoint to receive them and no log to read them back from. Disconnecting from the internet after the page loads changes nothing about how it behaves.
Who it is for
- someone weighing up two offers.
- people working towards a savings target.
- readers who check the calculation rather than trust it.
Who pays for this
There is no charge to use ROICue. The costs are covered by advertising, which stays out of the way of the tool itself and has no access to your input. If an advert ever interferes with the page, tell us and we will look at it.
