A Japanese browser-based toolkit covering unit conversion, dates, text, code, weather, CSS, maps, learning, and more across 14 fields.

Why it surfaced

Potamo does more than produce answers: it explains the assumptions behind them, from whether a date count includes the first day to why 60 dB plus 60 dB is 63 dB. Its tools run in the browser without sending pasted text, and the site includes unusually specific utilities for Japanese units, era names, Unicode, subnet ranges, cloud types, paper weights, and traditional calendars.

August 15’s newborn domains include a live-aboard hydrogen airship with a two-tonne lift problem, a Japanese toolbox that explains its assumptions, an advisory-by-advisory Hawaiʻi hurricane archive, and a wedding-gift game about ungrateful poultry.

This is one of 1,000 discoveries in the 2026-08-15 Domain Arrivals issue.
