Solutions
Money questions, answered with your data.
Cashowa adapts to what you're trying to do. Pick the closest situation and you'll see the kind of questions you can ask — and the kind of answers you'll get back.
Budgeting on a single income
See where the month goes. Get an honest 50/30/20 read against your actual expenses and a list of subscriptions you forgot about.
Try asking
- “How much can I afford to save each month?”
- “Which 5 expenses are draining the most cash?”
- “What's a realistic emergency-fund target for me?”
Planning a home purchase
Build a step-by-step plan with a target down-payment date, monthly contribution, and what to cut to get there sooner.
Try asking
- “Build me a plan to buy a $400k home in 5 years.”
- “How much house can I actually afford?”
- “Show me what changes if I raise my down payment to 25%.”
Mixing freelance + personal
Treat your freelance income as a profit stream — Cashowa keeps personal and business spending separate inside one chat.
Try asking
- “What was my freelance net for last quarter?”
- “How much should I set aside for tax this month?”
- “Compare my freelance earnings to last year.”
Running a small business
Run an analyst report on financials, ops, and acquisition — plus a website audit if you have a site. Re-run quarterly.
Try asking
- “Audit my business and find leaks.”
- “Where should I invest the next $5k?”
- “Why is my conversion rate dropping?”
Cutting subscription waste
Cashowa scans your transactions and flags every recurring charge — including 'stale' ones where you stopped getting billed. Find the trials that auto-renewed, the services you forgot about, and the ones quietly creeping up in price.
Try asking
- “What subscriptions am I paying for right now?”
- “Which subscriptions look stale or paused?”
- “How much do my recurring charges add up to per year?”
Lowering monthly bills
Internet, phone, insurance, streaming, energy. Cashowa researches your provider, finds 2–3 cheaper competitors live, drafts a retention call script, and writes the cancellation email. You either paste and send, or follow the script on the call.
Try asking
- “My internet bill is $90/mo with AT&T — can I do better?”
- “Find cheaper alternatives to my current car insurance.”
- “Draft a cancellation email for my gym membership.”
Recurring business reviews
Toggle on Quarterly Business Review and Cashowa re-audits your business every 90 days — automatically — with a quarter-over-quarter narrative of what improved and what slipped.
Try asking
- “What's changed since my last audit?”
- “Where did my gross margin go this quarter?”
- “Which acquisition channels are still working?”
Paying off student debt
Stack debts by APR or balance, simulate snowball vs avalanche, and see how much faster you can finish if you pay extra.
Try asking
- “Should I do snowball or avalanche given my balances?”
- “What if I throw an extra $200/month at my highest-rate loan?”
- “When will I be debt-free?”
Saving for a big trip
Set the trip date and target. Cashowa works backwards to a monthly contribution and tells you what to skip to hit the goal.
Try asking
- “Plan a $6k trip for next August.”
- “Where am I overspending that I could redirect?”
- “Show me a 9-month savings schedule.”
Combine the tools
Each surface in Cashowa shares context with the others — work the way that suits the question.
Plan first, then chat
Run the planner once a quarter. Then chat to drill into specific lines or update the plan when life changes.
Upload, then ask
Upload a few months of CSVs. Cashowa categorises, then you ask 'where am I leaking?' or 'show monthly trend'.
Personal + business
Same account, two profiles. Build a personal plan, then run a business audit — context is shared in chat.
The right answer is one upload away
10 credits free every month — enough to plan, audit, and chat for an afternoon.
