For freelancers, artists, and day players with irregular pay

Stop Guessing.
Know Your Real Number.

Your bank balance says $800. But rent hits Friday, your phone bill auto-pays Tuesday, and that check still hasn't cleared. So what can you actually spend today?

Secure The Bag builds an 8-week cash flow forecast from your real bank data — so you see every bill coming, know what's left, and make surprises rare.

A woman with her dog standing in front of a giant hundred-dollar-bill mural — the everyday weight of money.

We've Been There.

You wrapped a 14-hour day. Rent's due on the 1st, insurance auto-drafts on the 5th, and payroll says "Friday." Your last invoice is still net-30 pending. It's 11pm and you're doing the math: can you cover gas, parking, and groceries without something bouncing?

You're not bad with money. You're juggling three gigs, two accounts, and a paycheck that hits different every week — while your bills don't care.

Budgeting apps want you to log every coffee. Banks alert you when you're already negative. None of that solves the real problem: you need to see what's coming, not just what's here.

The forecast you've been doing in your head

A rolling forecast that starts from your real bank balance and projects forward through every known bill and paycheck — so you can see tight weeks ahead of time and adjust before anything hits.

Simple Setup

Set it up once. Then let it run.

01

Sign Up

First name, email, password. That's it — takes less than a minute.

Connect Your Bank

Connect securely through Plaid. Read-only access — we can't move your money, and we never see your login.

03

AI Finds Your Bills

Our AI scans your transaction history and detects every recurring bill, subscription, and paycheck. You review and approve — zero manual entry.

04

See Your Future

Your 8-week forecast builds itself. You'll know exactly what's coming, what's left, and whether you need to make a move.

Everything Working for You. Nothing to Maintain.

Secure The Bag keeps your forecast current in the background — so you can focus on the work.

Automatic Matching

Transactions get matched to the right bill or income line automatically — so your forecast stays current without reconciliation.

SMS That Actually Helps

Text us "Can I afford a $200 kit rental this week?" and get an instant answer — we'll run the projection and tell you if it changes your overdraft date. Morning digests, bill reminders, and overdraft warnings too.

Overdraft Prediction

We flag the exact date your balance goes negative — days before it happens. Enough time to move money, skip a purchase, or pick up an extra shift.

Irregular Income? Built for It.

Day rates, gig payments, freelance checks that show up "whenever" — our AI detects your actual income patterns, even with 10-day variance. No neat bi-weekly paycheck required.

Receipt Scanning

Snap a photo of a receipt and text it to us. AI reads the merchant, amount, and date — then creates a forecast entry automatically. No typing.

All Your Accounts. One View.

Checking, savings, credit cards, loans — connect everything. See your total cash available, total owed, and this week's forecast at a glance.

A different kind of money app.

Most apps summarize the past. This one helps you decide what's safe next.
