Why Trefid is different

Trefid calculators are not just answer boxes. The larger tools show a receipt, explain the calculation method, highlight the inputs that move the result most, and let you save a few scenarios locally for comparison.

That makes the result easier to audit: you can see what changed, copy the summary, and keep the calculation private on your own device.
