A BUDGET THAT UNDERSTANDS THE CALENDAR

Make the month easier to see.

Find the tight days.

See your lowest projected balance, which bills arrive before pay, and when cash dips below the buffer you choose.

Leave space for real life.

Plan salary, pension, gig work or several contributors. Keep unknowns and estimates visible instead of turning them into certainty.

Give future bills a place.

See seasonal costs, set a reserve for an occasional bill and try a change before making it part of your plan.

FIVE FLEXIBLE STEPS

Start where you are. Come back as you learn.

  1. 01

    Household & income

    Add take-home cash, optional contributors and actual pay dates.

  2. 02

    Bills & spending

    List due dates, flexible spending, debt and savings.

  3. 03

    Timing & goals

    Set available cash, your buffer and future-bill reserves.

  4. 04

    Dashboard & scenarios

    See the cash path and test a lower-income or unexpected-expense month.

  5. 05

    Save & Excel

    Return to a local plan or take a private, editable workbook with you.

For someone starting out, sharing a home, raising a family or planning retirement. Labels and priorities are yours to choose.

Flexible cash inputs

Salary, multiple jobs, self-employment, pension, benefits, rent, distributions, support or a stipend. Gross pay is never treated as spendable.

Lower variable income, a changed due date, a new expense or a different savings contribution. Reset to your base plan whenever you need.

Keep and revisit

Named local plans, independent copies, validated backup and restore, and your purchased major workbook version.

PRIVATE BY DEFAULT

Your account keeps access.
Your device keeps the details.

Your income, contributors, bills, goals and notes stay in this browser. They are not sent to Stripe or automatically uploaded to TaxCalcy.

Sign in with a verified email code or Google. Your email is not a marketing subscription.

Moving to another device?

Your account restores purchased access. It does not restore local budgets from another device. Use an explicit backup to move your plan.

Browser data can be lost if you clear storage. Downloaded workbooks and backups contain your information and are controlled by where you save or share them.

BEFORE YOU BUY

Clear boundaries. Useful information.

Cash planning, not tax advice

Enter take-home amounts, or deliberately bring in a supported TaxCalcy calculator result as an estimate. This product adds no worldwide tax calculation.

21 budget currencies

Includes zero-, two- and three-decimal currencies. Changing a budget currency relabels numbers; it does not convert them. Purchase currency is separate and currently CAD.

Designed for Excel for Windows. Excel for web, Mac and LibreOffice compatibility has not been verified.

No bank connection, transaction import, automatic cloud sync, investment-return assumptions or universal spending rules. Dates do not move for bank holidays.

ONE PURCHASE. A CLEARER MONTH.

Keep the perspective.

Use the complete planner on the website and keep an editable companion. There is no subscription or extra workbook fee.
