## What is PocketBuddy?

Meet PocketBuddy — the AI money buddy that actually knows your finances.

PocketBuddy turns budgeting into a real conversation. Chat with your AI Buddy to understand where your money goes, check if you can afford that purchase, and build spending habits that stick — all without complicated spreadsheets or rigid categories.

CHAT WITH YOUR AI MONEY BUDDY
Stop guessing. PocketBuddy's AI assistant knows your real financial data. Ask "How much did I spend this month?", "What's my daily limit?", or "Can I afford a new laptop?" and get instant, personalized answers. No forms, no manuals — just a natural conversation with your buddy.

CAN I AFFORD THIS?
Before making a purchase, let PocketBuddy check your finances. Tell it the amount and watch as it reviews your active spending period, daily limit, and recent transactions before giving you a clear verdict — Go for it, It's a bit tight, or Better skip it. With alternatives and goal impact included.

SMART SPENDING PERIODS
Set up budget periods that match your life — weekly, biweekly, or monthly. 
Choose between two modes:
Flexible mode: Stay aware of your daily spending with a clear daily limit
Saver mode: Every day you spend under your limit, the leftover goes into your Savings Pot
