Know where the money's going.
Set a budget, log expenses as they happen, and see planned versus spent for every category — so no event quietly drifts over. Built into every event.
Plan the number. Track it as you spend.
Every event budget works the same way: set what you plan to spend, log what you actually spend, and let CakeBot flag it before a category runs over.
The top of the budget always shows what you planned, what you've spent, and what's left — updated the moment you log an expense.
Set a planned amount per category — venue, food, decor, transport, and any others you add — and see planned versus spent for each one.
Add an expense straight from chat, and CakeBot flags it immediately if a category is about to go over budget.
Pool contributions from co-hosts or guests by UPI to help cover the budget — money still moves only on your approval.
Every expense keeps its category, amount, and date, so the numbers never go fuzzy — and you can export budget summaries as CSV alongside your guest list and RSVP reports, any time.
