Parenting and childcare costs
Every expense for your child is worth tracking.
Formula, nappies, checkups, classes, toys — parenting costs are more frequent and more scattered than most parents expect. Futari links every expense to your child so both parents always know what's been spent.
"How much have we spent on the baby this month?"
Medical bills, food, clothing, classes — parenting costs spread across categories. Futari lets you link every child-related expense to your child asset, so you can filter and see the total at any time.
"I handle most of the checkups — does my partner know the cost?"
When one parent handles most of the child-related spending, the other can lose sight of the full picture. Futari puts every expense in the shared ledger so both parents see everything in real time.
"We have two kids — we want to track them separately."
Futari supports multiple asset entries. Each child has their own record, their own expense history, and their costs never mix.
How Futari helps
Asset expense tracking
Link expenses to your shared car, home, kids, pets, or plants. Costs automatically categorise themselves.
Flexible split modes
50/50, by income ratio, or one person covers it all — pick a mode and Futari handles the math automatically.
Real-time sync
One person records something and the other sees it instantly. The ledger is the conversation.
Chapter-based history
Moving in, getting married, new job, new home — each life chapter becomes a new ledger chapter. The past is always there to look back on.
