Stop guessing.
Start saving.

Not another budget app. Not another AI chatbot. A money copilot with a real engine underneath - built by a chartered accountant and it never makes the numbers up.

How it works

From bank link to goal, in four steps.

Surplus does the maths so you don’t have to. Here’s the whole loop - connect, see, plan, pace.

  1. 01

    Connect your bank

    Link your accounts in seconds through regulated, read-only Open Banking. No passwords stored - you choose exactly what to share and can disconnect anytime.

  2. 02

    See what’s safe to spend

    Surplus reads your real cash flow - bills, subscriptions, income - and surfaces the one number that matters: what’s safe to spend before payday.

  3. 03

    Set a goal, get a plan

    Tell Surplus what you’re saving for. It builds a balanced, achievable plan from your actual money - not a blank spreadsheet.

  4. 04

    Stay paced all month

    Live pacing, payslip checks and AI nudges catch shortfalls early and tell you exactly what to fix to stay on track.

Surplus AI

AI that closes the loop on your money.

Set a budget and Surplus quietly watches for what shifts. When coffee spend creeps up, it lands a priority on your home screen, sets the lever for you, answers the questions you ask - and tells you when the win is in the bank.

Security & trust

Built to be trusted with your money.

Surplus runs on regulated open banking - the same secure rails your bank uses. You decide what to share and you can disconnect any account in a tap.

The Budget

A starter plan, not a blank spreadsheet.

Surplus reads your real cash flow and auto-generates a balanced plan - monthly income, fixed costs, essentials, lifestyle - sized toward a savings goal you can actually hit.

The Payslip

Paid less than expected? You’ll know first.

Surplus reconciles every payslip against your assumptions - flags shortfalls, tracks pay changes and tells you exactly how much income to expect this month.
