My Expenses is a very simple app to track expenses for one-time budgets. Let's say you're going on vacations in Italy and you want to allocate $1.500 to this trip.

I kept abandoning budgeting tools because manual entry felt like homework, so I built something that records a purchase in under five seconds. *How it works:* tap once, say “4 dollars 50 coffee at Starbucks.” Audio is sent to the ElevenLabs speech-to-text API for transcription, then a lightweight OpenAI prompt extracts amount, merchant and category.
