Your spreadsheet is the reason you never log expenses.

How it works

Four ways to log. All of them easy.

Type one line.
Like it's Notes.

Type "lunch 45 aed" or "tuk tuk 500 lkr." Jotspend's AI figures out the category, converts currency, tags location. You never touch a dropdown.

  • Natural language — type however you want
  • Auto-categorized in under a second
  • Works in 40+ languages

Snap a receipt.
Walk away.

Point your camera at any receipt — local language, handwritten, crumpled, in the dark. Jotspend reads it, parses every line, and logs it. You never have to come back to "organize photos."

  • Reads any language and script
  • Extracts line items, tax, total, tip
  • Works on photos you already took

I built this because
I couldn't use any
expense app either.

Every trip, I'd try a fancy expense tracker. Every trip, I'd give up by day 3 and just start typing stuff in Notes or sending messages to myself on WhatsApp.

Forms were slow. Categories were annoying. Currencies were a mess. I never once finished reconciling a trip.

So I made Jotspend — the app I wanted. I took it on a one-month trip across those three countries as a test. For the first time ever, I tracked every single expense.

FAQ

Common questions.

How is this different from Splitwise or TravelSpend?

Those apps work like traditional expense trackers — you tap through a form for every expense. Jotspend is chat-first. You type one line, send a voice note, or snap a receipt, and the AI handles the rest. Splitwise is great for splitting bills with friends. Jotspend is for tracking your own spend without forms.

Does it work offline?

You can still log expenses offline — they queue up and sync when you reconnect. The AI parsing runs when you're online, so currencies convert and receipts get processed once you have signal. Perfect for flights and remote destinations.

What if the AI gets something wrong?

Every AI-parsed expense is editable in one tap. Wrong category? Tap and change it. Wrong amount? Fix it. The AI learns your preferences over time — by your third trip, it rarely gets things wrong.

Can I use it for business reimbursement?

Yes. Export any trip as a clean PDF or CSV with line items, dates, categories, and receipt photos attached. Hand it to your accountant. Done.

What languages does it support?

Input in 40+ languages. Receipts can be in any script (Arabic, Thai, Sinhala, Chinese, Japanese, etc.). The app UI is in English today — more languages coming soon based on demand.

Is it really only AED 9/month?

Yes — if you pay annually (AED 109/year). If you want to pay weekly for a single trip, it's AED 19/week. There's no hidden upsell, no "pro tier" that unlocks basic features. One plan, all features.

How do I cancel?

Two taps through the App Store or Play Store — same as any subscription. Cancel during your free trial and you won't be charged a thing.

Will my data be used to train AI models?

No. Your expense data is never used to train any model. It's encrypted, stored privately, and only accessible by you. We don't sell data and we don't run ads.

Stop promising yourself you'll track expenses next time. Install Jotspend and actually do it.
