    After using Soulver for over 10 years on a Mac, I really needed an alternative when I switched back to the Windows Platform.

    OpalCalc is in my opinion the best alternative for Soulver. It's even possible to use it as a Portable-app (on a usb thumbdrive).

    OpalCalc is closely inspired by Soulver, matching its dual-frame window design and ability to use natural language in calculations.

    It's the most similar to it in terms of features and, best of all, it's free. However, it's only available for Linux at the moment, but since it's open source it could easily see ports being made on Windows and Mac.
