A Special Note from Michael Riley
When I built ZilchWorks back in 1991, I was not thinking about marketing slogans or industry buzzwords. I was thinking about people who needed a way out of debt, because I knew what that felt like myself.
What people need most is not more noise. They need a clear plan they can trust and follow. That is why I built ZilchWorks in the first place, and that is still what drives me today.
Here is why I made a free version:
- Because debt already costs you enough.
- Because not everyone can afford the full Windows product, but everyone deserves a real chance to get out of debt.
- Because a clear plan can change more than your finances. It can change your confidence, your choices, and your future.
I have walked this road myself. I know how heavy debt can feel. If this free calculator helps you see a way forward, then it is doing exactly what I hoped it would do.
We Believe
These are the ideas behind ZilchWorks and the people we serve.
Life is better without debt.
A clear plan changes everything.
Courage begins with a single choice.
Rock bottom is only temporary.
Nobody is perfect. Everyone deserves a second chance.
We make things right when we can - and own it when we fall short.
Each of us has a pilot light.
Anyone can get out of debt. Even you.
