A budget that forgives you for ignoring it.

One number a week. No transaction logging. Leave it alone for two weeks and it picks up exactly where you left it. One-time price, no subscription.

The Forgiving Budget sheet on a phone: one input cell and a short stack of category rows

One email when it launches, plus the launch price. Unsubscribe any time. No spam, ever.

  2. 2
    Add one number a weekWhat you spent, roughly. No receipts, no categories, no bank linking.
  3. 3
    Skip weeks without guiltMissed a fortnight? The month rebalances itself when you come back.

Questions

What do I actually get?

A Google Sheets template you copy to your own Drive. Your data stays in your account. Works on the Sheets app on your phone.

How much will it cost?

A one-time price, no subscription. Waitlist members get the launch price before it goes up.

Does it connect to my bank?

No. That is the point. You type one number a week and nothing else.

I get paid every two weeks. Does it work?

Yes. It is built around paychecks, not calendar months.
