CheckEven is the simple way to share restaurant checks and other bills. Scan a receipt, assign items, and track balances. Email sign-up is optional, you can just enter your name. Snap a photo of a receipt and let the AI receipt scanner extract line items, tax, tip, discounts, and totals. Then split fast by tapping or dragging people onto items, with proportional allocation handled automatically. Use CheckEven for restaurants, travel, shared groceries, group events, and any bill where people owe different amounts. Track balances by person, record settlements, and keep recent checks and transfers in one place. Traveling or splitting across currencies? CheckEven supports multiple currencies and shows equivalent balances in your home currency on the dashboard. Start instantly with just a display name, then link an email later if you want to sync your ledger across devices. Are we even? CheckEven!
