Zero-Based Monthly Budget — Spreadsheet + Visual Dashboard

Give every pound a job. Plan your whole month, track planned vs actual, and watch "Left to Budget" fall to zero. Live charts show where your money goes by category and type.

Who it's for: anyone who reaches the end of the month wondering where it all went, and wants a plan that accounts for every pound before it's spent.

Inside: a Setup tab, the Budget planner (40 rows, auto-calculated difference & % of income), and a Dashboard with three charts.

Bonus — interactive Visual Dashboard (.html): open it in any browser, drag your saved sheet onto it, and see cleaner charts. Runs entirely on your device.

Instant download. A .zip with the spreadsheet, the visual dashboard and a quick-start guide. Works in Excel, Google Sheets and Numbers.
