Household money, guided

A money guide that lives in the assistant you already use

Zeno keeps your household's money picture and forecasts the weeks ahead with honest ranges. Then it guides you one small step at a time, right in your conversation with Muse. Ask it before you buy something. It answers with your real numbers, never a guess.

Can we do the $1,500 trip to my sister's in October?
Checked with ZenoRuns short As things stand, you'd be about $117 below zero on Oct 15, the day before both paychecks land. If you book on Oct 17 instead, after Avi's paycheck, your lowest point stays around $1,380.
Book it for the 17th.
Done. I've noted that you chose to wait two days, so we can see how close the forecast was.
How it works

Real numbers in ten minutes, then one thing at a time

1

Bring in your bank

If your bank is connected in Muse, Zeno starts from your real balances and transactions. It finds your paychecks and bills, and you confirm them in one go. It only asks about what the bank can't show.

2

See what's likely next

A forecast of the next weeks and months, with a range instead of false precision: when money gets tight, what's coming up, and what changed since you last looked.

3

Decide before you spend

Before a purchase, booking or subscription, your assistant checks it against the forecast and shows you the answer. It's information, never a block. You decide.

Ahead

Honest about the future, including what it doesn't know

Every forecast comes with its range. A paycheck that isn't guaranteed is left out of the low edge. An old balance widens the range until it's refreshed. The plan you chose and what's actually happening are kept apart, because the gap between them is where the useful conversation is.

The path

Seven stages, at your own pace

It starts with steadying the ground, then seeing everything clearly. From there you decide what matters, rebuild your budget from zero, build a cushion, pay down debt, keep it steady, and finally flourish. A stage ends when its milestones are met, never on a date. Going back a stage is part of the road, not a failure.

The needs lens

Spending that matches what makes life feel better

Zeno can show your money across five levels of need: basic needs, security, belonging, esteem and growth. Next to each one is how satisfied you say you feel. Where a lot of money buys little satisfaction, or a starved need drags the whole month down, that's worth a conversation. Every level needs some funding at once; it's a balanced diet, not a ladder.

Left: where the money goes. Right: how each level feels, 0 to 10, in your own judgment.

Gentle, and honest

The guide's rules

You decide

It never prescribes a lifestyle cut. It lays out the trade-off, and you choose.

Honesty is the firmness

The pressure comes from an accurate forecast, not from rules. It opens with what's going well, and treats a risk as something to fix.

One step at a time

It suggests the next small step, not the destination. If a suggestion doesn't fit twice, it changes the suggestion, not the pressure.

Big levers first

Housing, cars and income shape most of cash flow, so that's where it starts. No spending your willpower on coupons.

Never "stop paying"

It never advises skipping a payment you owe. When bills are bigger than the money, it says so plainly: that's an income-and-support problem, not a personal failing.

Your data stays yours

No ads, no selling, no model training. Anything your assistant notices is shown to you as a proposal until you confirm it.
