Presets
A fixed-rate loan has a level monthly payment, but its split shifts over time: early payments are mostly interest, later ones mostly principal. That is why paying extra early, or choosing a shorter term, saves so much interest. Educational tool, not financial advice.

Governing equation
Reading this result: At 6.50% APR over 30 years, the monthly payment is $2,212 and you pay $446,406 in interest — about 128% of the amount borrowed. The payment is level, but its split shifts: your first payment is mostly interest (86% of it), while the last is almost all principal. A higher rate or a longer term sharply raises the total interest, and paying extra early attacks principal before interest can accrue on it.
