About PTOWise

PTOWise is a dedicated, independent digital resource built to help American workers, HR coordinators, and payroll specialists accurately understand, calculate, and project Paid Time Off (PTO).

Our Mission

Paid time off is one of the most critical aspects of modern compensation, yet calculating accruals, pay period credits, rollover caps, and termination payouts remains needlessly confusing. Our mission is to provide fast, completely private, client-side calculation tools combined with thoroughly researched, state-specific legal information.

Accuracy & Mathematical Standards

Our calculators employ standard payroll accounting formulas recognized across US HR information systems (HRIS). Calculations run entirely in your web browser without transmitting your personal payroll figures to external servers.

Editorial Independence

We maintain strict editorial independence. Our state law guides reference official state departments of labor, verified statutory codes, and prevailing court precedents.
