Founder Budget

Track SaaS bills and runway in a budget built for solo founders

Problem
Regular budgeting apps only cover personal categories like rent and groceries, while indie founders need to track SaaS subscriptions, server bills, and runway. Someone on r/SaaS built HustleWallet specifically for this, showing real demand.
Solution
A minimal budgeting tool for indie founders with business-specific categories like SaaS subscriptions, cloud services, domains, and API usage, centered on cash flow and runway views, with duplicate subscription detection and renewal reminders.
Users
Indie founders, freelancers, and solo company operators
MVP
Custom founder-specific income and expense categories; aggregate monthly SaaS and cloud bills; show runway forecast; detect duplicate subscriptions and send renewal reminders; export a simple financial statement
Revenue
Monthly subscription or one-time purchase; free tier limited by categories and connected bill count
Why now
The number of indie founders and AI product builders is surging, but there's a gap between personal finance tools and company finance tools for one-person companies
