About Baluniverse Sim

Baluniverse Sim is an independent companion site for SimCompanies, the browser-based business simulation. We pull live market prices from the public game API and turn them into calculators, charts and guides that help players make better decisions — without logging in, paying, or installing anything.

What's inside

• Live market ticker for both realms (Magnates & Entrepreneurs).
• Production and retail profitability calculators.
• Recursive production chain breakdowns for 75+ goods.
• Building catalogue with cost-per-level and recipes.
• ~1,000 player profiles harvested from active market sellers.
• Beginner-to-advanced guides written by humans, not models.

Data source

Prices, market depth and company info come from https://www.simcompanies.com/api/v3/. We cache responses for at least 5 minutes (the API's stated rate limit) and again on disk for 6 hours. Static catalogue entries — building sizes, recipes, tier classifications — are curated by hand based on published game info and verified against live data.

How this is funded

The site shows Google AdSense ads. That's the only revenue source. Nothing is paid, gated, or upsold — every tool is free for every visitor regardless of consent choice. If you'd rather not see ads, decline the cookie banner; the calculators and tables work exactly the same.
