The quick-add bar sits at the top of your dashboard. Type a short phrase with an amount and press Enter — the expense is added without opening a form.
What it understands
fuel 800→ 800 in Transportgroceries 2.4k→ 2,400 in Groceries — “k” means thousandnetflix 649→ 649 in Entertainment
How it works
- On the free plan, a fast built-in reader finds the amount and matches the words to one of your space’s categories. It works instantly and never leaves Traxpend’s own servers.
- On Pro, the same AI that powers voice entry reads your phrase — so it also understands who paid, dates like “yesterday”, and other languages.
tip
Always include a number. If Traxpend can’t find an amount, it asks you to try something like “Fuel 800”.
