Peter Petkov
Founder, NerdsTips
Peter is the founder and lead developer of NerdsTips, a free online utility platform built to make calculators and converters fast, private, and accessible to everyone.
Background
Peter has a background in software engineering and product development. Before building NerdsTips, he worked on web applications across finance, health, and productivity sectors — experience that shaped his understanding of what makes a utility tool genuinely useful versus merely functional.
Focus at NerdsTips
Peter leads technical architecture, tool development, and content accuracy. He oversees the methodology that governs how formulas are sourced, tested, and maintained across the platform. His day-to-day work spans writing code, auditing tool accuracy against official standards, and responding to user feedback.
Principles
- Accuracy first: A calculator that gives the wrong answer is worse than no calculator at all.
- Privacy by default: Tools should not require registration, tracking, or data collection.
- Speed matters: Every tool should load and produce results in under a second.
- Explain the why: Users should understand how a result was reached, not just what the result is.
