Getting started
Sign in, plan your first month, and track an expense.
Early draft
This page is a short outline for now. Step-by-step guides with screenshots are coming.
1. Sign in
SpendRock is invite-only for now. Sign in with the Google account that was invited (or that's on the list). Your first sign-in creates your own household, named after you, with an empty budget.
2. Plan the month
Open the current month and choose Start Planning. SpendRock copies your most recent budget, or starts you from a simple template if this is your first month.
- Add your income for the month.
- Add groups (like Housing or Food) and items (like Rent or Groceries) with a planned amount each.
- Keep going until Left to Budget reaches zero: every dollar has a job.
3. Track what you spend
Add an expense or income with its amount, date, and merchant, and pick the budget item it belongs to. You can split one purchase across several items. Each item shows what you've spent and what's remaining.
4. Invite your household
Anyone in a household can invite someone by email from Settings → Households. Everyone in the household edits the same budget.
What's next
More help is on the way. In the meantime, the API docs describe everything SpendRock can do, in detail.
