Landing page captured for the 2026-08-23 issue.

Why it surfaced

Plain Number pairs genuinely practical calculators with unusually clear explanations, from why a lender's quote differs from principal-and-interest math to what an extra $100 payment changes over time. It also makes a concrete privacy promise: no account, and nothing typed into the calculators leaves the browser.
