Live financial model

Drop =VERVE("mortgagecalculator", 570000, 6.8, 30, "field", "downpayment") into a cell and your model reads the latest number every refresh — no more pasting figures from a browser tab into a stale sheet.

Track a whole watchlist

Fill a column beside your list of tickers or currencies and every row updates together, so a hundred-row watchlist stays current on its own.

Dashboards that don't rot

Point a chart at the cell =VERVE("mortgagecalculator", 570000, 6.8, 30, "field", "downpayment") feeds and the chart re-draws as the data moves — a finance dashboard that's live instead of a Monday-morning snapshot.

The same function works in both apps — install once, sign in with your key, and type it into any cell.

Google SheetsAdd-on

Install from the Workspace Marketplace, then drop the formula into a cell. Autocomplete suggests the source and its fields.

=VERVE("mortgagecalculator", 570000, 6.8, 30, "field", "downpayment")
Microsoft ExcelAdd-in

Same source, same arguments, same key — in Excel on desktop, the web, or mobile. Excel namespaces it as VERVE.CALL. Drag to fill a whole column.

=VERVE.CALL("mortgagecalculator", 570000, 6.8, 30, "field", "downpayment")

Tune the result by adding name=value before the field argument — in any order. Leave one out and its default applies.

    The down payment amount

    =VERVE("mortgagecalculator", 570000, 6.8, 30, "downpayment", "15000")

Premium marks data included on paid plans. On the Free plan a marked field is withheld and a marked input is ignored — either way the cell reads #PREMIUM(name) instead of a value, so a gated answer can never be mistaken for a real one. Everything unmarked works on every plan. Compare plans

Calculate Mortgage Payments, answered

Everything you need to wire it into a sheet.

How do I pull Calculate Mortgage Payments into Google Sheets?
Install the VerveSheets add-on, sign in once with your key, and type =VERVE("mortgagecalculator", 570000, 6.8, 30, "field", "monthly_payment.total") into any cell. The "field" argument names the value you want back, so the cell resolves to a single number or string you can chart, sort, or feed into another formula.
What data can I pull from Calculate Mortgage Payments?
Calculate Mortgage Payments returns monthly_payment.total, monthly_payment.mortgage, monthly_payment.property_tax, monthly_payment.hoa and monthly_payment.home_insurance, plus 4 more — name any one of them as the "field" argument and that value lands in the cell. Leave the field out and the whole record spills into a two-column table instead.
Can I narrow what Calculate Mortgage Payments returns?
Yes — Calculate Mortgage Payments takes "downpayment", "annual_propertytax", "annual_homeinsurance" and "annual_hoa" as optional inputs. They go in as "name", value pairs after the required ones, in any order, so =VERVE("mortgagecalculator", 570000, 6.8, 30, "downpayment", "15000") shapes the result without changing anything else.
Which Calculate Mortgage Payments fields need a paid plan?
total_interest_paid, total_loan_payment and interestRatio are included from the Starter plan up. On the Free plan the cell returns #PREMIUM(field) rather than a wrong or empty value, so it's always obvious which one to upgrade for. Every other field works on Free.
Can I fill a whole column of Calculate Mortgage Payments at once?
Yes. Put your amount values down a column and point the formula at the range — A2:A50 instead of A2 — and one call returns a value for every row. Dragging the formula down works too, but the range form is a single billed call per column rather than one per cell.
How many credits does each Calculate Mortgage Payments cell cost?
Each resolved cell costs 1 credit. A cell only re-bills when it actually refreshes, so a sheet you aren't touching doesn't keep charging.
Does Calculate Mortgage Payments work in Excel as well as Google Sheets?
Yes — same arguments, same key, same fields. Excel namespaces custom functions, so the call is =VERVE.CALL() there and =VERVE() in Google Sheets; nothing else about it changes.

Put Calculate Mortgage Payments in your next spreadsheet. Add the extension, paste the formula, and the cell keeps itself current.
