Why this number isn't your real take-home rate
This conversion is a straight-line gross calculation — it doesn't account for self-employment tax, platform commissions, unpaid admin hours, or business overhead that a freelancer carries but an employee doesn't. If you're sizing up a freelance rate against a salaried offer, run the numbers through the full Loomrate rate calculator to see your real net hourly rate, or use the freelance vs. employee comparator for a side-by-side total-compensation view.
