How To Use This Calculator

  1. Enter remaining principal, APR, and your current monthly payment.
  2. Add an extra monthly payment and optional lump-sum amount.
  3. Compare baseline vs accelerated payoff timelines and interest totals.
  4. Use balance trends to visualize how quickly the loan burns down.
  5. Adjust extra payments until timeline and cashflow tradeoffs fit your plan.
  6. Save a shareable link with your assumptions, then run one conservative and one optimistic scenario before deciding.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if payment is too low?

If payment cannot cover monthly interest, payoff becomes non-viable and the tool flags it.

Does this include lump-sum prepayments?

Yes. You can model a one-time principal reduction alongside recurring extra payments.

What is interest saved?

Interest saved is the difference in total interest paid between baseline and accelerated scenarios.

Can I use this for auto, personal, or student loans?

Yes. The math is loan-agnostic as long as you use consistent payment assumptions.

Can agents execute this model?

Yes. The loan_payoff contract returns deterministic payoff and timeline outputs.

Is this tool free and private to use?

Yes. AI Fin Hub tools are free, no-signup browser tools. Inputs stay in your browser unless you choose to share a URL.

Can I use this with AI agents too?

Yes. Human mode is the default experience. If you use AI automation, open the optional 'For AI Agents' section for deterministic contracts.
