Amortio is an independent financial education project focused on making loan calculations simple and accessible for everyone.
Amortio is founded and edited by Brazora Monk, a software engineer with a decade of experience building data-intensive web platforms. Brazora is personally responsible for editorial direction, methodology, and final review of all calculator math on this site.
We believe that understanding loan amortization shouldn't require a finance degree—it should be as simple as entering a few numbers and getting clear, accurate results. That's why Brazora built Amortio: a straightforward calculator with educational resources to help you make informed borrowing decisions, with every calculation citing primary sources (Freddie Mac PMMS, FHFA, Federal Reserve) and updating within 24 hours of source data releases.

Why We Built Amortio
Understanding loan terms and amortization schedules is fundamental to making good financial decisions, yet many people find these concepts confusing. We created Amortio to prioritize clarity and education. Every design decision is guided by one question: "Does this genuinely help the user understand their finances better?"
Amortio is not affiliated with any lenders, banks, or credit services. This independence allows us to focus solely on providing accurate, unbiased calculations and educational content without steering users toward any particular financial product.
