Hi there! I’m Serdar Salim. If you’ve tried multiple budget apps and spreadsheets and still felt stuck, you’re in the right place.
I built Simplify Budget around a practical monthly system: plan income and fixed costs, track daily spending clearly, and review net worth every month. It’s designed to help you make better money decisions with less friction and more consistency.
I tracked everything in Google Sheets, but mobile entry was slow and repeating the same fixed expenses and net worth items every month became exhausting. Formula-heavy automation turned me into a spreadsheet operator, not someone solving the real money-management problem. I wanted the flexibility and ownership of Google Sheets without the manual overhead, so I built Simplify Budget on Google Apps Script.
Now fixed expenses are automated, and net worth and budget goals carry forward each month. I can focus on variable spending decisions, track progress clearly, and monitor my net worth over time with less effort.
I don’t use bank sync, statement imports, or heavy reconciliation workflows. They add complexity without improving decisions. The goal is simple: stay consistent with spending and saving goals while steadily growing net worth.
You can start in minutes with your Google account and begin tracking right away. Your data stays in your own Google Sheet in your own Google Drive, so you keep ownership and control from day one. You get the flexibility of Sheets with the speed of an app.
