About

LazeeFish is a free, web-based envelope budgeting app for people who want YNAB's discipline without the $109/year price tag.

Connect your bank in seconds with Plaid (encrypted access tokens, never stored as plaintext). Every transaction auto-categorizes based on rules you teach it once. Recurring bills surface as expected occurrences so missed payments become visible. The built-in debt tracker turns every credit card and loan into a first-class envelope with payoff projections. Joint households let couples share budgets without merging finances entirely.

Other apps charge $5–$15/month for these features. LazeeFish charges nothing. Solo-built, open feature backlog, transparent roadmap.
