Getting Started

Welcome to ExpenzX

ExpenzX is a focused personal and business finance tracker. Log your income and expenses, scan receipts with AI, set budgets, and understand your money through clear reports — without ever connecting a bank account.

This documentation is organised to match the app's sidebar, so each section maps directly to a screen you'll use inside ExpenzX.

What is ExpenzX?

ExpenzX gives you a private, secure place to record and understand your finances. You stay in control: every transaction is something you enter manually or capture from a receipt — there are no bank logins, and the app can never move your money.

Behind the scenes it's built on Microsoft Azure, with AI features powered by Azure Document Intelligence and Azure OpenAI to take the manual work out of categorising spend.

ExpenzX uses Google sign-in exclusively. There's no separate password to create or remember.
