Built around the way you are actually paid

Your budget, on acalendar.

The Budget Calendar is a budget calendar built around the way you are actually paid. Every bill and every paycheck sits on the day it really lands, so you can see what clears before payday and what doesn’t — then move a bill to a different day and every balance after it updates. Bank sync, payoff dates and a warning before you go negative are there when you want them — the calendar is the point.

Free forever for planning. No credit card.

The Budget Calendar makes you look.

Most budgeting apps show you a chart and call it coaching. The Budget Calendar says the thing a sensible relative would say over the kitchen table — the amount, the day, and what to do about it.

Everything you need

A budget calendar, and everything around it.

A budget calendar you can drag

Your budget calendar lays each pay period out on real dates. Grab a bill, drop it on the day — or the paycheck — that covers it, and every balance after it updates live. No spreadsheet, no guessing.

It names the day you'll come up short

"You're $240 short on Aug 13. Something's going to bounce — move a bill past the next paycheck, or spend less before then." Not a red chart at the end of the month. A date, and what to do about it.

Finds the bills you never planned for

A charge that lands three months running, on roughly the same day, is a bill whatever it calls itself. The Budget Calendar spots it — "came out 3 months running, around the 14th, always $12.99" — and offers to plan it, so it stops quietly eating your Miscellaneous.

Premium

Automatic bank sync

Plaid keeps every transaction current. New charges queue up beside the calendar, each with a guess at the bill it belongs to — accept it, drop it on a day, or leave it for later.

Premium

Debt snowball with payoff dates

List your debts. Get a real payoff date and the interest a different order would cost you. Watch the snowball grow one paycheck at a time.

Premium

Every dollar gets a job

Plan each paycheck down to the bills it has to cover. Whatever a pay period doesn't spend stays in your running balance, and whatever the month leaves over carries into next month's buffer on its own.

What a budget calendar does that most budgeting apps don't.
