Schmidti Budget overview showing the available amount and four budgets with progress bars

The 3-category model

Three categories. One clear picture of your money.

There is no new mental model to learn. You create your own buckets inside three categories, and every screen in the app stays built around them.

Budgets

Monthly amounts for everyday spending.

Groceries, fuel, clothes, the things that come back every month. Each budget shows what is left and how far into it you are, so you can decide in a second rather than do the maths.

Goals

Save for the things you actually want.

A holiday, a new bike, furniture. Set what you are aiming for and watch the progress fill up — readable at a glance, without a spreadsheet in sight.

Reserves

Money set aside for the surprises.

Repairs, a broken washing machine, a change of job. Reserves are the cushion you build quietly in the background, so an unexpected bill stays an inconvenience instead of a problem.

Everyday use

Logging a transaction takes seconds.

Amount, category, done. The details are there when you want them and out of the way when you do not — because an app you have to fight is an app you stop using by the third week.

  • Expense, income, or a transfer between your own buckets.
  • Recurring transactions for rent, subscriptions, and the other regulars — set once, then forget about them.
  • Every budget keeps its own history, so you can see where the month actually went.

Detail when you want it

Open a budget, see the whole story.

What is still available, how much of the month you have used, what is coming up as recurring, and every transaction behind the number — including who in your household added it.

Made for households

Budget together, in real time.

Invite your partner or the people you share a household with. You share the same buckets, see the same balances, and log transactions side by side — changes show up instantly for everyone.

  • No more "did you already log that?" moments.
  • Keep personal buckets personal — you choose what the group sees.
  • Works just as well if you are budgeting on your own.
