I also feel like there is a better way to do budgeting with the current state of AI. I want an AI assistant that helps me stay on track. I want it to text me, let me know every morning how I'm doing and how I should be spending or not spending. I haven't achieved that yet in this MVP but I hope to. Would love to get your feedback on this.
Key features:
- Chat with your budget - An AI assistant for your budget - Manual transaction entry by design - helps you stay mindful of your spending - Flexible budget periods (monthly, bi-monthly, or custom periods) - Completely customizable categories and budget structure - Smart debt payoff and savings projections - No bank connections required (v1)
What makes JABA different:
Philosophy: Most apps try to automate everything, but this often leads to miscategorized transactions and a disconnect from your finances. JABA embraces manual entry as a feature, not a bug. I'm also not married to this and may end up adding bank connections if I can figure out a good UX.
Flexibility: Start budgeting from any date (even mid-month), create custom periods, and structure your budget your way. No forced categories or rigid systems.
AI as a helper: The assistant is meant to be a friend to help you stay on track with your budget.

Looking for feedback, particularly from others who:
- Want to see what AI can do for budgeting and would like to help me achieve that - Need flexible budget periods - Want to chat with their budget
