What it is

Built for people who want control without a bank connection.

How it works

1

Add accounts

Name each card, bank account, or cash source so activity stays easy to review.

2

Import or paste

Map statement columns once, then review transactions before they enter your ledger.

3

Adjust categories

Fine-tune categories, recurring bills, and applied months as real life changes.

4

Read the month

See fixed spending, variable spending, income, remaining income, and category trends in one place.

A private budgeting alternative

Budget from statement activity without sharing bank credentials.

MonthSum is a personal budget tracker for Mac built around the files you already receive from banks and credit cards. Import CSV or Excel activity, paste recent transactions, or add an item manually—then review the month before anything enters your ledger.

It separates income, recurring fixed bills, and variable spending so household budgets remain readable from month to month. MonthSum does not require a bank login, subscription account, or transaction upload.
