AUNTIE ZERO gives your ADHD brain one clear number that tells you what is safe to spend. No bank linking. No category tracking. No guilt. Just clarity.
Try It FreeTraditional budgeting apps ask you to categorize every purchase, link your bank accounts, and check in constantly. That works great if your brain can sustain focus on boring tasks. But if you have ADHD, you already know how that goes.
You download the app. You set it up with good intentions. Three days later, you stop opening it. Then the shame spiral starts.
Here is what ADHD brains are actually up against:
AUNTIE ZERO was built to fix all of that. Not with more features. With fewer decisions.
You can be fully set up in under five minutes. Seriously.
Go to app.auntiezero.com and create your free account. Once you are in, your dashboard loads right away. This is your home base. The big number at the top? That is your Safe-to-Spend, and it is the only number you need to pay attention to.
Tap "Add Income" and enter what you earn. You can add a regular paycheck, freelance gigs, side hustle money, cash gifts, or anything else that puts money in your pocket. Have more than one income source? Add them all. Your Safe-to-Spend updates the instant you hit save.
Tap "Add Bill" and enter the recurring expenses you need to pay every month. Rent, utilities, phone, subscriptions, car payment, whatever you have. Each bill you add gets subtracted from your Safe-to-Spend so you always see what is left after your responsibilities are covered.
Need to split a big bill into smaller payments? Use the Multiple Payments feature to break it into installments that match your pay schedule.
Now look at your dashboard. That number at the top is your Safe-to-Spend. It is your income minus your bills, calculated in real time. This is the only number you need to focus on. If it is positive, you have money to spend. If it is getting low, you know to slow down.
No pie charts. No spending categories. No complicated reports. Just one clear answer to "Can I afford this right now?"
When you pay a bill, open AUNTIE ZERO and tap "Mark as Paid." Your Safe-to-Spend updates automatically. That is it. No receipt scanning, no transaction importing, no wondering if you forgot something.
Want your Safe-to-Spend number on your phone without opening the app? Add AUNTIE ZERO to your iPhone home screen. The widget shows your number at a glance so you can check it in two seconds flat.
The philosophy behind everything AUNTIE ZERO does.
Remove decisions from your plate. The less you have to remember, the less you forget.
Your Safe-to-Spend is the only number that matters. Know it and you know where you stand.
Money struggles are not character flaws. Your brain just works differently, and that is okay.
Set up your bills once and let the system keep track, even when your attention wanders.
Spend your energy on what lights you up, not on spreadsheets and receipt tracking.
Rich is not just a dollar amount. It is peace of mind, freedom, and fewer late fees.
AUNTIE ZERO is a budgeting app built specifically for people with ADHD. Instead of tracking every dollar or linking your bank account, it gives you one clear number called your Safe-to-Spend. That number tells you exactly how much money you can spend right now, after your bills and income are accounted for. Learn more about why traditional budgeting fails ADHD brains.
Most budgeting apps were built for neurotypical brains. They require you to categorize every purchase, link your bank accounts, and check in constantly. AUNTIE ZERO was built for ADHD brains. There are no categories to manage, no bank linking required, and no guilt trips. You get one number to focus on and a dashboard that updates in real time. Read our full breakdown of why traditional budget apps fail neurodivergent brains.
No. AUNTIE ZERO never asks you to link your bank account. You manually enter your income and bills, which keeps your financial data private and puts you in full control. Many people with ADHD find this approach less stressful because there is nothing running in the background that you need to monitor.
Safe-to-Spend is one clear number on your dashboard that tells you how much money you can spend right now. It is calculated automatically by taking your income and subtracting your bills. Whenever you log income or mark a bill as paid, your Safe-to-Spend updates instantly. No mental math required.
The ADHD Tax is the extra money people with ADHD lose to late fees, forgotten subscriptions, impulse purchases, and duplicate buys. This can add up to hundreds or even thousands of dollars a year. AUNTIE ZERO helps you reduce your ADHD Tax by keeping your bills visible, your spending clear, and your money organized in a way that works with your brain. Use our ADHD Tax Calculator to see how much it is costing you.
Yes. AUNTIE ZERO is a web app that works on any device with a browser, including iPhones, Android phones, tablets, and computers. You can also add it to your iPhone home screen as an app icon with a widget that shows your Safe-to-Spend number without even opening the app.
AUNTIE ZERO works great with irregular income. You can log income from multiple sources like freelance gigs, side hustles, and paychecks on different schedules. Your Safe-to-Spend updates every time you add income, so you always know where you stand, no matter when the money comes in.
AUNTIE ZERO was designed with ADHD brains in mind, but anyone who wants a simpler approach to budgeting can use it. If you have ever felt overwhelmed by traditional budgeting apps, hate tracking every purchase, or just want one clear number to tell you what is safe to spend, AUNTIE ZERO is for you.

AUNTIE ZERO was created by Thressa Pine-Smith, a solo founder with ADHD who got tired of budgeting apps that were not built for her brain. After losing thousands of dollars to the ADHD Tax herself, she built the tool she wished existed. AUNTIE ZERO is not backed by a big tech company. It is built by one person who actually lives with ADHD every day.
