Know when the things you always buy get pricier.
Every repeat purchase builds a price history — plus your own price index, basket inflation, and a shrinkflation watch.
The line-item budget book
Snap a receipt and PodKitty reads every line — what you bought, what it cost, and how that price is moving. The part of your spending a card statement never sees.
Why line items
Bank feeds stop at the merchant and the total. PodKitty keeps what was actually in the bag — so your budget can tell eggs from paper towels.
Card statement
One merchant, one total. What you bought — and what each thing cost this time — is gone.
PodKitty
7 items · 6 categories · 1 price increase — each one saved to its own price history.
How it works
Scan with the document camera — long receipts stitch across pages — pick a photo, or type it in. On Plus, forward email receipts to your private address.
PodKitty reads each line, sorts it into a category, and catches duplicates and coupons. Fix anything in a tap before it's saved.
Watch prices item by item, keep budgets on pace, and find out where the same things cost less.

Shared ledgers
Run a household ledger together without handing over everything. You choose, category by category, what the group can see.
Privacy
A ledger holds a lot about your life. PodKitty collects what the ledger needs and nothing it doesn't.
Receipt photos travel over an encrypted connection and are deleted automatically once they've been read. Your ledger keeps the items, not the picture.
Sign in with Apple, Google, a passkey, or a one-time email code — and add an authenticator app if you like.
No sale of personal data. Anonymized item and price statistics are used only if you opt in — never your identity — and you can opt out anytime.
Export your receipts and line items as JSON, or delete your account from Settings whenever you want.
