About GoodBudget

GoodBudget is a modern take on the old-school envelope budgeting system, where you stuff virtual cash into digital envelopes for your expenses. It’s designed for couples, families, or anyone who loves micromanaging their money with a side of moral superiority. Syncs across devices so you and your partner can argue over who spent the coffee budget in real-time. Offers a free tier with basic features, but you’ll need to pony up for premium if you want more than 10 envelopes or to track your debt like a responsible adult. It’s got a clean interface, but don’t expect it to hold your hand through a financial crisis.
