About this version
The current Calculator Matcher runs directly in the browser using a library of calculator names, categories and search phrases. It scores your request against those terms and returns the strongest matches. This means it works immediately without an AI API. As your calculator library grows, you can continue adding entries to the calculator database in the JavaScript below. A semantic AI search backend could also be added later.
Know the formula but not what it means?
Formula Explainer breaks formulas into variables, purpose and basic steps.
Common Questions
About Calculator Matcher.
The matcher is designed to help users find a tool when they know the problem but not the calculator name.
It compares the words in your request with a database of calculator
names, categories and related phrases, then ranks the strongest
matches.
No. The point of the tool is to let you describe what you're trying
to calculate without knowing the exact calculator name.
Yes. The calculator database is stored in the JavaScript near the
bottom of this file. Additional calculator names, URLs, categories
and keywords can be added as your library expands.
The matcher returns several results and places the highest-scoring
match first so the user can compare likely options.
Not yet. The current version uses browser-based keyword scoring. A
semantic AI backend could later improve matching for more unusual
requests.
