Hi Product Hunt! Solo founder here. Life Power started as a question I kept asking as a remote worker: not "how much does that city cost?" but "what would MY salary actually make me there?" So I built it — type your income and your city, and you get a level from Beggar to King, based on how far your money goes. The fun part is how wrong our instincts are. A $6,000 salary makes you a Beggar in New York (level 14) — but $10,000 working remote from Mexico City makes you a King (94). $3,000 in Mexico City outranks $6,000 in San Francisco. Same career, completely different lives. Under the hood it's real: live cost data for 201 cities (rent, coworking, transit, dining), your level is income ÷ local cost on a curve, and there's a separate "Realm" grade for the city itself (safety, internet, walkability) — so a cheap-but-rough city can't masquerade as a great one. Everything is free, no signup, no card. You're among my first users, so brutal feedback is gold: which city's level looks off, and by how much? What would make the paid tier ($9.99/mo — AI discovery of new cities + a relocation advisor) worth it? What's YOUR level? 👑

Building Life Power!

Hi all I'm Pedro, solo founder building Life Power (launching here Aug 10).

It started from a question I kept asking as a remote worker: not "how much does that city cost?" but "what would MY salary actually make me there?" So I priced a real monthly basket 1-BR rent, coworking, transit, daily dining across 201 cities, and turned each salary into a level from Beggar to King.
