CLUSTER AGAINST-ALLOCATE-AMOUNTS · 5 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2024-03-22
Category-based budgeting apps
This cluster comprises personal budgeting apps focused on categorizing income, setting spending goals, and tracking expenses against planned amounts. Entries appear sporadically from March 2024 to April 2026, with three of the five dated launches occurring in the first four months of 2026. The traction leaders are The Happy Giraffe Budget App, Split My Paycheck: Budget Tool, and ZeroLine, each holding zero stars, indicating no traction advantage among them.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
