WHY TRUST FINANCEMONTY

Numbers you can check yourself.

Every formula documented

Open the methodology drawer on any result and see exactly how it was produced — sources, versions and limitations included.

Deterministic, never invented

Tax rates, thresholds and limits come from version-controlled rules, not language-model guesses. AI only explains — it never calculates.

Reviewed and dated

Each tool shows its applicable year, reviewer and last-updated date. If a rule changed, you'll see it flagged.
