I tracked every penny I spent for 30 days.
$197 gone on stuff I couldn't even remember buying. A coffee here. A quick food order there. A subscription I forgot I was paying for.
The problem was never that I made too little. It was that I had no idea where it was going.
So I built the tool I wished existed.
What I built
It's called ExpenseSumo. Here is what it does:
You type in what you spend. Takes 5 seconds. It does not connect to your bank. It never will. Your money is nobody's business but yours.
It shows you, in plain numbers, where every dollar went this month. No charts that lie. No averages that hide the problem. Just the real number.
It tracks money people owe you and money you owe them. So you stop forgetting the $50 your friend never paid back.
It warns you before a budget blows up. Not after. Before.
It works in any browser. Nothing to download.
The honest part
It is free. Forever. Not a 7 day trap that asks for your card. The free plan just works, for as long as you want.
If you ever want more (unlimited accounts, full history, custom categories), Pro is $4.99/month.
Right now I am giving the first 500 people a Lifetime account for a one time. Pay once, never again, locked in as a Founding Member. When the 500 spots are gone, they are gone.
I would rather you start free and never pay me a cent than keep guessing where your money went.
Why I built this instead of using something else
Every app I tried either wanted my bank login, showed me a dashboard I needed a tutorial to understand, or paywalled the features that actually mattered.
I wanted something simple. You spend money, you write it down, you see the truth. That is it.

Founding Member lifetime deal ($79 one time) is available now while spots last.
Happy to answer any questions in the comments.
