Something missing?

Two tools that were planned are deliberately not here: a book-to-audiobook finder and a narrator finder. Both need a catalogue database that does not exist in any free, public form, and a version that guessed would be wrong often enough to be worse than nothing. If that changes, they get built.

Everything else is decided by what people ask for. If you searched for something and ended up doing the arithmetic yourself, that is exactly the thing worth telling me about — the contact page reaches me directly, and several of the tools above exist because a reader asked.

Why these are free

This site earns through Audible and Amazon links. A tool that helps you decide what to listen to, or whether a subscription is worth it to you, is useful whether or not you ever click one of those links — and if it is useful enough to link to from your own site, that helps too. That is the whole arrangement. Nothing here is gated, nothing asks for an email, and none of the tools send what you type anywhere.

Every tool can also be embedded on your own site free of charge. Open any tool and the embed code is near the bottom of the page.
