Getting Started

Tapsayve is the fastest way to track spending, just talk to it or snap a photo. This section covers what Tapsayve is, how to create your account, and how to find your way around.

What is Tapsayve?

Tapsayve is an AI-powered expense tracker. Instead of filling in forms, you log expenses the fastest way possible:

  • Speak it: say “lunch 12 dollars” and Tapsayve captures the amount, category, and date for you.
  • Snap it: photograph a receipt and AI reads the merchant, total, and date.
  • Type it: add an expense by hand whenever you prefer.

On top of logging, Tapsayve gives you a live dashboard, budgets and alerts, AI insights, recurring-subscription tracking, shared family workspaces, and CSV / tax exports. It's available as a mobile app (Android) and a web app at tapsayve.com, sharing the same account and data.
