Budget tracking software that shows spend against budget live

Budgets usually live in a spreadsheet that is out of date the moment it is saved. Actual spend trickles in weeks late, so by the time a category is over budget, it has been over budget for a month. Budget tracking that lags behind reality cannot prevent overruns, it can only document them.

Receipts in, categorized spend out

Expenditure reads the vendor, amount, date and tax, categorizes the expense, checks it against your policy, and rolls it into a real-time picture of every dollar, then flags the waste.

Bank-grade · we never move your money

Expenditure is budget tracking software that keeps pace with real spend. Because every expense is read and categorized in real time, it tracks actuals against your budgets live, by team, category or vendor, and flags overruns as they form, not after the fact. You see exactly where you stand at any moment. It works with the cards and banks you already have, it is bank-grade secure, and it gives you software and insight while your finance team owns the numbers.

Why it works

What your team gets with budget tracking software

Spend vs budget, live

Actuals track against your budgets in real time, so you always know where each category stands today.

Overruns flagged early

When a budget is heading over, it is flagged as it happens, so you can act before the overrun grows.

By team or category

Track budgets by department, category or vendor, so accountability is clear and granular.

What it handles

A receipt in, a categorized line out, the waste flagged

Expenditure reads each receipt, categorizes it, checks it against your policy and rolls it into real-time spend, then surfaces the duplicate subscriptions and savings you are leaking.

  • Tracks real spend against budget in real time
  • Categorizes every expense automatically
  • Flags overruns as they begin to form
  • Breaks budgets down by team and category
  • Works with your existing cards and banks

Why Expenditure

Receipts read, spend categorized, waste flagged

Not manual coding, not a stale spreadsheet. Expenditure reads each receipt, checks your policy, shows real-time spend, and flags the savings, all on the cards and banks you already have.

Read and categorized

Snap, forward or drop a receipt. The AI reads the vendor, amount, tax and line items, categorizes it and matches the card, in seconds.

Waste flagged

Duplicate and overlapping subscriptions, unused tools, price creep and out-of-policy spend, surfaced in real time with the potential saving.

Secure and in your control

Bank-grade security, we never move or hold your money, and we never train on your data. Insights, not advice, your finance team decides.
