When to use each
Use Clear Margins when
- The number feeds a real business decision — pricing, ad spend, hiring, reorder, runway
- You want the result interpreted against a benchmark, not just computed
- You need to track how the same decision changes week over week
- You present results to clients and want a branded, shareable view
- You want an alert when a metric drifts outside a range you set
Use Omni Calculator when
- You need a calculator outside business math — physics, health, construction, conversions
- You want the widest possible selection of formulas in one place
- A one-off computed number is all the decision requires
- You are exploring a formula rather than running an operating review
The real difference: a number vs. a decision
A general-purpose margin calculator tells you a product has a 22% gross margin. A decision tool tells you that 22% is below the healthy threshold for e-commerce, that the current discount schedule is the likely cause, and that the next action is re-checking the price floor before the next campaign. The formula is the same — the output is not.
That difference compounds on paid plans: saved scenarios become an operating trail, comparisons surface margin drift early, and variance alerts catch problems between reviews.
Run your numbers with built-in benchmarks — no account required.
