Features
Everything in one income & expense tracker
Manual entry, AI receipt scanning, recurring transactions, split costs, tags — all in one dashboard.
Track income & expenses per project
Every transaction is scoped to a project — freelance client, side SaaS, content channel. See a separate P&L for each income stream, not one blurred ledger.
Income dashboard in real time
Revenue, expenses, and profit update instantly. Filter by week, month, quarter, year, or a custom range. Year-over-year badges tell you if you're growing.
Split shared expenses across projects
One Adobe bill, three projects. Split it 50/30/20 and every project's expense total reflects the real cost — not just the transactions assigned to it directly.
Tags and custom categories
Add free-form tags (domain, retainer, launch) and custom emoji categories to every transaction. Filter your income and expense history by anything.
Recurring transactions
Set subscriptions, retainers, and regular bills to repeat. They show up automatically so your expense tracker never falls behind.
CSV and Excel export
Export your income and expense history any time — for your accountant, your spreadsheet, or tax prep. No data lock-in.
How it works
From zero to your first P&L in 2 minutes
1
Create a project
Each income stream gets its own project — a client, a side SaaS, a content channel.
2
Add transactions
Log income and expenses manually, forward receipts by email, or scan with AI OCR.
3
See your profit
The dashboard shows revenue, expenses, profit, and profit-per-hour for every project.
Why not a spreadsheet?
Your Google Sheet breaks. Hustlay doesn't.
A spreadsheet is fine for one project. The moment you have two income streams sharing a tool subscription, it falls apart.

FAQ
Common questions about income & expense tracking
Is there a free trial for Hustlay?
Yes. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial — no credit card required. You get full access to all Pro features during the trial. Pro supports up to 10 projects with unlimited transactions.
Can I track income and expenses for multiple freelance projects?
That's exactly what Hustlay is built for. Each project (client, side hustle, income stream) gets its own P&L. Pro supports 10 projects; Business supports unlimited.
Does it work for small business income and expense tracking?
Yes. Hustlay works for freelancers, solopreneurs, and small-business owners with multiple income streams. It's not double-entry accounting — it's a profit dashboard designed for people who want answers, not journal entries.
Can I import bank statements or receipts?
Pro users can forward email receipts (Gmail, Outlook) and scan receipts with AI OCR. Bank statement PDF extraction is a Business feature. Manual entry works on all tiers.
How does Hustlay compare to a spreadsheet for income/expense tracking?
A spreadsheet breaks the moment you have two projects, shared costs, or recurring entries. Hustlay handles splits, recurring transactions, tags, and profit-per-hour automatically — without formulas or maintenance.
Is there a printable or Google Sheets income and expense tracker?
Hustlay isn't a spreadsheet, but you can export any date range to CSV or Excel and open it in Google Sheets. For a live dashboard with automatic updates, the web app is faster.
