Budget Pie Planner

Visualise how your budget divides across categories as a pie chart.

Seeing where money goes

A budget as a list of numbers is hard to take in; as a pie chart it is instantly clear which categories dominate your spending. This visualises your budget across categories, so the proportions — how much goes to housing, food, savings and the rest — are obvious at a glance.

Enter your spending categories to see the budget pie.

Proportions reveal priorities

The value of seeing a budget as proportions rather than amounts is that it exposes your real priorities, which are not always the ones you intend. A category that felt minor can turn out to be a large slice; savings can be revealed as a sliver when you meant it to be substantial. That visual shock is often more motivating than any spreadsheet, because it makes the trade-offs concrete — every slice is money not going elsewhere. Housing usually dominates, and how the rest divides tells you where there is room to adjust. Seeing the whole pie is a simple, powerful way to check whether your spending actually matches what you care about.
