Build a Budget Tracker for Professional Services

Architects, engineers, surveyors, and other licensed professionals. A budget tracker solves a core problem: manage personal or business budgets with income, expenses, and financial visualisations.

Professional Services professionals deal with managing complex project documentation and tracking project milestones and deliverables. A purpose-built budget tracker handles expense tracking, budget categories, budget alerts, so you can focus on the work that actually matters.

MVP features (launch in 4-6 hours):

- Category setup

- Transaction entry

- Balance display

Advanced features (add later):

- Bank sync

- Bill reminders

- Financial reports

- Goal tracking

This budget tracker is moderate complexity, achievable in a focused sprint. We recommend starting with the MVP and iterating based on real user feedback from your professional services clients.
