Features

Every tool you need to crush your loans.

We built the debt payoff system we wished existed during residency. Smart, automated, and aware of the nuances that matter for physicians.

Smart debt routing

Automatically apply extra payments to your highest-interest loans first. Set rules for how moonlighting income, bonuses, and side gig earnings get distributed across your loan portfolio.

PSLF protection

Track qualifying payments, verify employer eligibility, and get alerts before you accidentally disqualify yourself from Public Service Loan Forgiveness.

Round-up payments

"Roundups" feature tracks everyday purchases and helps you funnel the excess change toward your student loans. Think Acorns for debt. Small amounts compound into real progress.

Payoff projections

See exactly when you'll be debt-free under different scenarios. Model the impact of extra payments, refinancing, or income changes.

IDR plan optimizer

Compare SAVE, PAYE, IBR, and other income-driven repayment plans side by side. Factor in projected attending income, filing status, and forgiveness timelines to find the plan that costs you the least over your career.

FAQ

Questions about Debt Payoff.

Is Rounds Debt Payoff free?

The PSLF tools will be free. For the Roundups automation feature, we plan to have a subscription so that we can cover tech and API costs, likely around $9/mo or $75/yr. Also looking at an ad-supported model. We'll announce pricing closer to launch. The goal is to make the tool pay for itself many times over through interest savings.

Does this replace my loan servicer?

No. Rounds Debt Payoff works alongside your existing loan servicer. We help you optimize your strategy and automate extra payments — your servicer still handles the actual loan management.

Can it handle both federal and private loans?

Yes. You can connect both federal and private loan accounts. Our routing engine considers interest rates, forgiveness eligibility, and your overall strategy when distributing extra payments.

What if I'm not sure about my repayment strategy?

That's exactly what we're here for. The PSLF tools and IDR optimizer will model different scenarios and show you the total cost of each path. Those specific features we plan to keep free.
