Tools and a companion app for Commander players.
The Pod Companion builds free, focused tools for Magic: The Gathering — and a companion app for tracking life totals and game stats around your pod. No ads-first tools, no bloat, no upsells.
Mana Base Calculator
Answer the question every deckbuilder eventually asks: how many sources of each color do I actually need to cast my spells on time? Exact hypergeometric math, mobile-friendly, and pre-tuned for Constructed, Limited, and Commander.

Start with the calculator
The MTG mana base calculator is the centerpiece of the site. If you play Commander and want a straight answer for a specific deck, jump straight to the Commander mana base guide — it explains how the 99-card, singleton format changes the math, and it hands you numbers you can put in your list tonight.
Everything is calculated live in your browser. Nothing is estimated from a lookup table.
About the app
The Pod Companion app is a separate project, in development for Android. The goal is simple: a life tracker that feels good to use at the table for a four-player game, plus optional online game logging so you can see how your decks and your pod stack up over time. It is not out yet. There is no beta, no release date, and no store page — we are being honest about that. If you would like to be notified when it launches, email thepodcompanion@gmail.com.
