How insights works in practice

See the month before it surprises you

Insights compares this month’s business spend to last month so spikes show up while you can still ask why—extra travel, a software renewal, or a missing categorization that inflated the total.

Personal totals stay visible too, so household charges that landed in the ledger do not quietly masquerade as business trends.

Coverage and categories in one glance

Receipt coverage for business expenses tells you how much of this month’s spend still lacks an attachment. Closing that gap mid-month is far easier than reconstructing April from bank statements.

Category breakdowns show where money is concentrating—meals, fuel, software—so budgets and habits can react to the real mix, not a vague monthly total.

Budgets in context

When budgets are set, Insights surfaces progress next to the same numbers you already review. That keeps caps from living in a separate mental spreadsheet.

Use Insights as a monthly ritual: open it, clear missing receipts, adjust categorization noise, then move on. Small reviews compound into a tax-season packet that already makes sense.
