About Free BMI Calculator
Making health information accessible to everyone, everywhere.
Our Mission
We believe everyone deserves access to basic health tools without jumping through hoops, paying fees, or giving up their privacy. That's why we created Free BMI Calculator - a simple, straightforward tool that anyone can use to understand their body mass index and what it means for their health.
Too many health websites are cluttered with ads, require sign-ups, or give you confusing medical jargon. We wanted to create something different - a clean, easy-to-understand resource that respects your time and intelligence.

Everything on this site is completely free. No premium versions, no hidden paywalls, no required registrations.
Our Values
Accessibility
Health information shouldn't be locked behind paywalls or complicated medical language. We write in clear, conversational English that anyone can understand, and we make our tools available in multiple languages to reach more people.
Privacy
We don't collect, store, or sell your personal information. Our calculator runs entirely in your browser - your measurements never touch our servers. What you calculate stays private to you.
Accuracy
We use the standard BMI formulas recognized by medical organizations worldwide. Our information is based on current health guidelines from organizations like the WHO and CDC, presented in a way that's honest about both the usefulness and limitations of BMI.
No Judgment
We recognize that bodies come in all shapes and sizes, and BMI is just one imperfect measurement. We present information without judgment, knowing that health is complex and numbers don't tell the whole story.
Why We Created This
The idea for this site came from a simple frustration - trying to find a clean, ad-free BMI calculator that didn't require signing up or downloading an app. Every site we found was either cluttered with ads, tried to sell something, or made the simple task of calculating BMI unnecessarily complicated.
We thought, "There has to be a better way." So we built one. Our goal was to create the BMI calculator we wished existed - fast, free, private, and actually helpful.
As we developed the site, we realized people needed more than just a number. They needed context. What does a BMI of 27 actually mean? What should you do if you're underweight? How accurate is BMI anyway? So we built comprehensive guides to answer these questions in honest, practical terms.
Medical Disclaimer
We need to be crystal clear about this: we're not doctors, and this website doesn't provide medical advice. Our calculators and information are educational tools designed to help you understand BMI as a general screening metric.
BMI is useful, but it's not a diagnostic tool. It can't tell you if you're healthy or unhealthy - only your doctor can do that after looking at your complete health picture. If your BMI is outside the normal range, or if you have any health concerns, please consult with a healthcare professional.
Every person is different. What's healthy for one person might not be healthy for another. Use our tools as a starting point for understanding, but always work with qualified medical professionals for personalized health decisions.
Our Commitment to Quality
We're committed to keeping this site accurate, up-to-date, and useful. Here's what that means:
- We regularly review our content to ensure it reflects current health guidelines
- We test our calculators thoroughly to ensure accurate results
- We welcome feedback and corrections - if you spot an error, please let us know
- We keep the site fast, lightweight, and accessible on all devices
- We never compromise accuracy or honesty to sell products or services
Looking Forward
We're constantly working to improve this resource. Our plans include:
- Adding more specialized calculators for specific health conditions
- Creating additional educational content about weight management and health
- Expanding to more languages to reach a global audience
- Improving accessibility features for users with disabilities
- Developing tools to help people track their progress over time
