About

Read full description

Billy makes the invisible visible. Every purchase travels up an ownership chain — from the brand on the shelf to the parent company to the shareholders who profit. We show you that chain, plainly, using public records. Every claim tied to a named source. Then we put you in the same room as your neighbours, so you can do something about it together. WHAT BILLY DOES • Your Money — Scan a receipt, import a bank statement, or share a receipt email. Billy maps the ownership chain behind each purchase and shows you where the money actually ends up. All parsing happens on your device. • My List — A shopping list that remembers what you buy regularly, surfaces local and independent alternatives, and captures what you wish existed in your community. • Neighbours — Your community's real activity: what people are buying, what they're asking for, and which campaigns they're running. FOLLOW THE MONEY — ownership chains, shareholders, and documented actions (federal lobbying, political donations, labour findings, environmental filings), each tied to a named source. We surface the patterns too: where a company's harms cluster, and who profits. You decide what they mean. BOYCOTT TOGETHER, NOT ALONE — Individual boycotts fizzle. Coordinated ones bite. Billy is where a community picks a target, states its demand, and tracks who's in — a campaign with a scoreboard, not a hashtag that fades. LOCAL ALTERNATIVES — same need, more money staying local. VILLAGES — local circles where organizing happens; shared needs, offers, and campaigns, each tended by a Keeper. A SHARED TREASURY YOU CAN SEE — a Village can run a mutual-aid pot. Billy keeps the ledger transparent but never holds the money; it lives in a member-owned credit-union account. A REASONS BOARD, NOT A SHOUTING MATCH — a Polis-style board that surfaces which reasons cross groups and which divide them. PRIVACY BY DESIGN — data stays on your device; no ads, no tracking, no data sold, ever. Plus tiers (Observer / Participant / Pro) and the "public infrastructure" close. Come build privacy-forward parallel systems with us. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://abilli.app/privacy-policy.html
