Welcome to r/BuildYourBudget
Welcome to the official community for BuildYourBudget (BYB). We are a new budgeting and wealth tracking app that brings together everything you own and everything you spend into one single dashboard.
What makes BYB different?
Most budgeting apps just show you what already happened. BYB helps you decide what happens next:
π― Zero-Based Budgeting (Envelope Method)
Assign every dollar a purpose before you spend it. No more wondering where your money went at the end of the month.
π° Unified Wealth Tracking
Track your bank accounts, crypto wallets, and investment portfolios all in one place. Finally see your complete financial picture like assets, liabilities, and net worth, all in a single dashboard.
πΈ Smart Transaction Import
Our standout feature: upload screenshots of receipts or bank statements, and we automatically extracts and creates transactions in bulk. No more manual entry, one transaction at a time.
π Multi-Currency Support
Budget in your home currency while BYB automatically converts and normalizes all your international assets.
What's Available Now?
BYB is currently live on the web at buildyourbudget.com. Mobile apps are in the pipeline and will come after we've refined all core features based on your feedback.
