About us

Money is personal. It doesn't have to be lonely.

The Joy Budget is a budgeting app with a social side. It plans your money with you, shares it with the people you share life with, and gives you a community that's working toward the same things.

Why we're building it

Budgeting shouldn't feel like homework.

Most budgeting tools hand you a spreadsheet and a sense of guilt. You set it up once, life happens, and the plan stops matching reality.

Real money decisions are rarely made alone. You split rent with roommates, plan groceries with a partner, save for a trip with friends, and swap tips with people who've been there.

So we're putting the two together: a budget that adjusts itself as you spend, and a place to share the journey, with the people and the privacy settings you choose.

Plan it. Share it. Enjoy it.

A good budget isn't about saying no to everything. It's about knowing what you can say yes to.

What we believe

Four ideas behind every screen.

01

Budgets should bend.

Life changes month to month. Your plan should keep up on its own, with you approving every change.

02

Sharing should be easy, and optional.

Invite a partner or roommates in seconds. Keep what's personal, personal.

03

Progress is worth celebrating.

Paying off a card or hitting a goal deserves a cheer. Challenges and a feed make small wins visible.

04

Privacy is the floor.

Your data is encrypted, never sold, and shared only the way you decide.

Who it's for

Built for the way people actually live.

Whether you're managing money on your own or with a whole household.
