Budgy is a finance-based travel assistant. Using travel and expenditure history, it can budget your trip, calculate projected expenses and offer support in your travels. For collecting data for this service we’ve created Budgy App - an app for tracking and sharing common budgets in the course of the travels, as well as for compiling easy and accurate reports.

What Problems Do We Solve?
Almost impossible to know
the real price of a
future journey
When you are planning
a trip, the only concrete
information you have now
is ticket prices and the cost
of accommodation. Everything
else is largely approximate.
Budgy can help you find
solutions to all your desires
within your prescribed price
range, thus allowing you
to calculate the real price
of your future journey.
Difficult to find places
within your price range
and preferences
Difficult to stay within
budget at unfamiliar
places
