What to notice

Summary

"From Today" (fromtoday.app) is a free, browser-based date calculation web application and content hub. It serves as the homepage of a suite of ~16 date/time tools. The page offers a natural-language search box ("90 days from today"), two interactive calculators (days-between-dates and add/subtract), a "Today at a glance" stats section (day of year, ISO week, quarter, days until next holiday), a directory of all date tools, popular pre-computed calculation pages, holiday countdowns, and a FAQ. All calculations run client-side in JavaScript using the user's device date, with no server-side processing, and the site is monetized via Google AdSense plus analytics via piqo.app. It is heavily SEO-structured with JSON-LD schema (WebApplication, FAQPage, Organization) and features dark/light themes and responsive design.

Target audience

This is built for everyday people who need quick, accurate calendar math — project managers, HR and payroll staff, event planners, students, travelers, and anyone managing deadlines (contracts, taxes, billing, visa/legal timelines). It also serves hobbyists and quick-reference users looking for countdowns to holidays, age calculations, and time/military conversions. The depth of US-deadline and federal-holiday content indicates a US-centric primary audience, though it also supports India holiday calendars and international time zones.

Key features

  • Natural-language search box: type phrases like "90 days from today" or "30 days ago" and get the exact date + weekday as you type
  • Days Between Dates calculator with breakdown in days, weeks, months, years and business days, plus "include end date" toggle and date swap
  • Add/Subtract calculator for days, weeks, months and years, with a business-days-only option
  • Business Days calculator that skips weekends and can optionally skip US federal holidays (or India holidays)
  • "Count the start day as day 1" option for deadline counting
  • "Today at a glance" dashboard: day of year, days left in year, ISO week number, quarter, days until next holiday
  • 16+ dedicated tool pages (days from today, days ago, months/weeks from today, age calculator, time zone converter, military time, holiday countdowns, federal holidays, official US deadlines, etc.)
  • 18 pre-computed "popular calculations" pages (3 to 180 days from today)
  • 10 holiday/season countdown pages (Christmas, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Easter, seasons, etc.)
  • Calendar (.ics) export to add computed dates to a calendar app
  • Client-side only computation — respects the user's local time zone and sends nothing to a server
  • Full dark/light theme support, responsive mobile layout, and FAQ section

Pain points

  • Manually counting days on calendars is tedious and highly error-prone
  • Confusion about whether "X days from today" includes today (the tool offers an explicit "count start day as day 1" option)
  • Distinguishing calendar days from business/working days, and accounting for federal holidays in day counts
  • Complex month-end handling when adding months/years (e.g., Jan 31 + 1 month)
  • Confusion over ISO vs US week numbering and day-of-year (Julian) counting
  • Uncertainty about official US deadline day-count rules (COBRA, credit disputes, taxes, appeals, visas) that can carry legal/regulatory consequences
  • Cross-time-zone confusion (CST, EST, PST, GMT, IST) and 24-hour/military time conversion
  • Tracking days until recurring holidays/seasons and knowing observed/bank-closure dates for federal holidays
  • Existing server-based calculators raise privacy/accuracy concerns — this one runs entirely in the browser using the device's local date

Usage instructions

From the homepage, the quickest path is the search box at the top: type a natural-language query like "90 days from today," "30 days ago," "6 months from today," or a business-days query, and the exact date appears as you type. For custom date ranges, use the "Days between dates" tab (pick start/end dates, optionally include the end date or enable business-day skipping) or the "Add or subtract" tab (choose a date, add/subtract, amount, and unit, optionally restricted to business days). Results can be exported to a calendar via the "Add to calendar" button. For more specific needs, browse the Date calculators directory to dedicated pages (business days, holidays, deadlines, time zones, etc.). All calculations run locally in the browser, so "today" always reflects the user's own device date and time zone.
