deal with money.

You showed up. That matters.

Common questions

Because we believe your financial data is yours. Not ours, not a third party's, not a data broker's. Your budget lives in your browser's local storage. We never see it. A couple of clicks to enter your numbers is worth your privacy.
All three versions — Free, Starter, and Premium — include a JSON download feature. Save your backup file, and you can restore your full budget anytime on any device. If you upgrade from Free to Starter or Premium, you can bring your data with you. We recommend downloading a backup after each session.
It means exactly that. You pay once. You keep the tool. No subscriptions. No surprise charges. The version you purchased is yours for as long as you want to use it.
Yes. It works in any browser on any device. You can also add it to your home screen and it opens like an app. Most of our users open it on their phone at night when they're ready to sit with their numbers.
No. This is a tool to help you see your own numbers clearly. What you do with that clarity is up to you. We just make the seeing part easier.
