Know what's safe to spend today. Your bank balance doesn't know your rent is due, or that you meant to save this month. Tracaura does. It sets your savings and rent aside first, then shows the one number that's actually yours to spend today. Log what you spend and watch the number move. That's the whole idea. SET UP IN A MINUTE Tell it roughly what you earn, what your rent is, and how much you'd like to save. One question per screen, and you see your daily number as you go. WHAT YOU GET • A daily safe-to-spend number that updates the moment you log something • Savings protected first, before you spend a cent • Rent and subscriptions set aside automatically each month • Scan a receipt instead of typing it • AI insights that notice patterns you'd miss, like the weekday that costs you most • A monthly roast: a funny, honest money personality made from your own numbers • A breakdown of every month, category by category • A weekly check-in that takes five seconds • Optional reminders, with a little personality NO BANK LOGIN. EVER. Tracaura never connects to your bank, so no banking details are ever shared. You enter what you spend; nothing is guessed. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No ads, and nothing follows you to other apps • Your financial data is never sold • Your account and history are stored in Canada • No shame: no red alarms, no lectures about coffee RECEIPT SCANNING Point your camera at a receipt and the total and merchant are filled in for you. The photo is read once and never stored. FREE AND PREMIUM Free includes your daily number, 10 receipt scans a month, and 2 AI insights every 3 days. Premium adds 5 fresh insights every day, unlimited scans, your monthly roast, and every month you've ever tracked. ABOUT THE AI Insights and the monthly roast are generated automatically from the numbers you enter. They're observations, not financial advice. Nobody at Tracaura is a financial adviser. If a topic doesn't land, tap "Never show this" and it won't come back. Terms of Use: https://tracaura.com/terms Privacy Policy: https://tracaura.com/privacy
