BetterBudget 1.0 — every dollar gets a job
The first public release of BetterBudget: zero-based budgeting built to be fast, shared, and genuinely fun to keep up. Here's what's in the box on day one:
- Monthly envelope budgeting with a live to-assign meter (under / zero / over states), one-tap copy from last month, and a starter category template.
- Per-category rollover — choose reset-monthly or carryover per envelope.
- Sinking-fund goals with target month, live progress, and pace tracking.
- Recurring expenses with idempotent one-click apply per month.
- Budget together — invite your household or team, owner/adult/limited roles, per-member transaction attribution, and real-time updates for everyone.
- CSV import with column mapping, duplicate detection, and an EveryDollar preset.
- Reports — spending donut, 12-month trends, per-member breakdown, and net income.
- Gamification — XP and levels, three streaks (daily log, weekly review, months budgeted), 14 badges, and celebrations when months zero out and goals get funded.
- Plans — Free forever, Plus at $4.99/mo or $49/yr, Business at $9.99/mo or $99/yr, with a 14-day Plus trial and no card required.
Next up on the roadmap: bank sync. Until then, the importer and ten-second logging have you covered.
