## What is Ron?

Ron is the calm budget companion for your money — and your business.

Most budgeting apps shout. Ron whispers: it surfaces the one thing worth noticing each month in plain language, without the anxiety or the endless charts.

CAPTURE IN SECONDS
• Scan a receipt with your camera, pick a photo, or import a file — Ron reads the merchant, date, and total automatically.
• Add a transaction by hand in a tap, with an optional note.

SEE WHERE YOUR MONEY CENTERED
• A calm dashboard highlights what actually changed this month.
• Browse your full ledger, grouped by day. Tap any item to edit or delete.

BUILT FOR SIDE HUSTLES & THE SELF-EMPLOYED
• Tag any expense to a business to keep Schedule C deductions organized.
• Keep personal and business spending cleanly separated for tax time.

CALM BY DESIGN
• Set your currency to use Ron anywhere in the world.
• Lock the app behind Face ID or Touch ID.
• Your data is yours — receipts are stored privately, and you can delete your account anytime from Settings.

Ron is free to use. An optional Ron Pro subscription (managed on the web at heyron.app) unlocks unlimited receipt scanning, business/Schedule C tracking, and bulk import.

Ron is not tax advice — Schedule C line mappings are common defaults; confirm final placement with a CPA or your tax software.
