Not a chatbot. A money coach.

Each companion analyzes your real 30-day spending patterns — not a generic tip sheet. They learn your habits, flag your blind spots, and coach you in a style that actually resonates.

Personalized daily insights from your actual behavior

Different styles — from tough-love to gentle nudges

Surprise daily gifts — gems, cards, and insights

Real talk, not generic tips from a finance blog

Everything you need to win at money.

🎮

Challenges that actually change behavior

Six types — BET, HUNT, SWAP, STREAK, CAP, MYSTERY — each targeting a specific spending pattern. Weekly missions keep budgeting from getting stale.

📊

Beautiful analytics

See where your money goes with charts that are actually pleasant to look at. Daily, weekly, and monthly breakdowns.

📸

Receipt scanner

Point, snap, done. AI reads the receipt, categorizes the expense, and logs it in under 5 seconds.

🧠

AI leak detection

Your companion spots recurring charges, creeping subscriptions, and spending patterns you didn't notice.

🔐

Private & secure

Face ID, encrypted data, no bank connections. Your financial data stays on your terms.

🌍

Multi-currency

Travel, freelance internationally, or just track multiple currencies. Eira handles the conversion.

🎨

Cosmetic shop

Spend gems on profile frames, companion skins, and visual flair. Because budgeting should look good too.

Finally settle who actually spends more on takeout.

Household mode lets you and your partner (or housemates) manage money together — with a leaderboard to keep things interesting.

🤑

Money is better as a team sport.

Shared visibility changes behavior. When you both see the same numbers, the "I thought you paid that" conversations disappear.

👥

Shared budgets

Owner and member roles. Everyone sees the same numbers. No more "I thought you paid that."

🏆

Leaderboard

Friendly competition. Who saved more this week? Gamification works better with an audience.

😏

Stickers

Send your partner a 👏 when they skip the impulse buy. Or a 😤 when they don't. Passive-aggression, gamified.

Shared spending insights

See combined analytics. Where does the household money actually go?

Most budgeting apps are built by engineers. This one was built by a researcher.

I studied why budgets fail. Then I designed one that doesn't.

I'm Alina — a UX designer with 17 years in enterprise SaaS, an MSc in Statistics, and a PhD candidacy in gamification. I once consolidated 54 legacy industrial applications into one platform. That project won a Red Dot Design Award.

But Eira came from a different question: why do people who want to budget keep quitting? I analyzed 127 real budgeting failures, dug into the behavioral science of habit formation, and realized the answer wasn't better spreadsheets. It was better game design.

Every mechanic in Eira — the 3-day review cadence, the companion coaching styles, the challenge types, the variable reward system — is grounded in research. This isn't gamification bolted on. It's gamification as the architecture.

The honest answers.

What makes Eira different from Mint, YNAB, etc.?+

Those are spreadsheets with nice skins. Eira is a game. You have a companion who knows your spending patterns, challenges that change your behavior, and a household leaderboard to keep you honest. The gamification isn't cosmetic — it's built on behavioral psychology research from 127 real budgeting failures.

Is it actually free?+

Yes. The core experience — budgeting, companions, challenges, analytics, household mode — is free. You earn gems by using the app, and those gems unlock premium AI features. No credit card, no surprise paywall.

How does household budgeting work?+

One person creates the household (owner) and invites others (members). Everyone shares the same budget view, can log expenses, earn gems, and compete on the leaderboard. You can also send stickers to react to each other's spending. It works for couples, families, or housemates.

What are the 17 companions?+

Each companion is an AI personality with a different approach to money coaching. Some are data-driven strategists, some are gentle encouragers, some will roast your impulse purchases. They analyze your real 30-day patterns — not generic tips.

Is my financial data safe?+

Encrypted and protected with Face ID / Touch ID. We don't sell data to third parties. Ever.

What about Android?+

iOS only right now. Android is on the roadmap — drop your email below and you'll be first to know.
