What it does

  • One ledger, not two apps. Track your own spending and shared spending in the same place, instead of two apps that disagree.
  • Split anything. With friends, flatmates or colleagues, in whatever proportion you agreed on.
  • Settle over UPI. Settlement is immediate — no confirmation step the other person has to remember.
