Personal financeReceipt to decision

Built for daily use

BudJet

I built the finance tracker I kept wishing existed: fast enough for daily use, detailed enough to be useful, and smart enough to spare me most of the typing.

I wanted less bookkeeping

Most finance trackers work perfectly if you enjoy entering every purchase by hand. I do not. If recording a coffee takes longer than buying it, the system has already lost.

I built BudJet because I wanted a clear view of my money without turning expense tracking into a second job. The basic rule is simple: capture spending from the evidence that already exists, then make the useful part automatic.

From receipt to useful data

Take a photo of a receipt and BudJet extracts the merchant, date, total, and individual items. AI suggests categories, you fix anything it got wrong, and the budget updates. The same flow works through the web app or Telegram bot, and existing data can come in through CSV instead of being typed again.

Keeping the line items matters. It means a supermarket receipt is not just one mysterious €83 block called “Groceries.” BudJet can show what was actually bought, track price changes, and even look up nutrition data for food—because apparently I could not leave a receipt scanner alone.

Money is rarely a one-person system

BudJet supports personal finances and shared households without mixing them into one unusable pile. Invite people, give the household its own budget and currency, then switch between your spending, one household, or everything together.

Recurring expenses and subscriptions stop quiet monthly leaks from disappearing into the timeline. Savings goals make future purchases visible. Reports show trends and category breakdowns, while recommendations point out patterns worth paying attention to.

It also works across multiple currencies and seven languages, which is useful when your life does not fit neatly inside one country or one bank account.

Built for daily use

BudJet is not a finance dashboard I built for screenshots and forgot. I use it every day. That has forced me to care about the boring parts: fast entry, editable AI results, custom categories, household permissions, encrypted financial data, recurring transactions, and reports that answer a question without making me become an accountant first.

There are more features than I originally planned, naturally. But the test has stayed the same: does this make keeping track of money less annoying? If not, it does not belong.
