ISK/HOUR: a tiny ratting income analyzer
Paste your EVE Online wallet journal, get your ISK/hour — one self-contained HTML file, nothing uploaded.
I do a fair bit of ratting in EVE Online, and the question that never goes away is the boring one: am I actually making good ISK right now, or does it just feel like it? The wallet journal has the answer, but staring at a wall of tab-separated rows isn’t analysis.
So I built a small thing to do the staring for me. It lives here:

What it does
Open your wallet in-game, go to Journal, select the rows from your session,
Ctrl+C, and paste them in (or drop a .txt file). It parses the entries and
hands back:
- ISK per hour — the headline number, measured across the active span of the session
- Total earned, session length, average per payout, and your best single tick
- A breakdown by income type — Bounty Prizes, ESS Escrow, mission rewards, and so on — with each type’s share and its own ISK/hr
- A cumulative income chart and a per-tick payout chart, with hover tooltips
The parser is deliberately forgiving: it finds the date column, grabs the first ISK-looking value after the transaction type, and copes with both tab- and multi-space-separated paste formats. Journals come newest-first, so it sorts back into chronological order before doing any math.
The part that matters
It’s one static HTML file. No build step, no dependencies, no backend — the
charts are drawn by hand on a <canvas>, and everything runs in your browser.
That’s not just a nicety: your wallet journal never leaves your machine. Nothing
is uploaded, nothing is logged. You could save the page and run it offline.
That self-contained-ness is also why it slotted onto this site so easily — it’s just a file sitting at a URL. Exactly the kind of small, useful, disposable tool this notebook is for.
