✦ How you feel, not your budget

Was it worth it? "anzi"

Coffee, concert tickets, a gift, new shoes. Each morning, Anzi shows you what you bought yesterday and asks how it felt. Five seconds, three emojis. Over time, you find out what really makes you happy.

★ Etymology
an·zi /ˈan.t͡si/ adv. Italian

1. On the contrary; actually; rather. Used to revise or reverse what was just said.

"I thought I needed it. Anzi — I don't."

01.
The morning ritual

Some buys make your week. Some you forget by breakfast.

A morning coffee. Tickets to a show. A gift for a friend. The gadget you wanted for weeks. The price never tells you which ones were worth it. How they made you feel does.

Anzi asks one question each morning about what you bought the day before. A night's sleep makes your answer honest. After thirty days, you know what's worth it to you, and what isn't.

Questions, answered.

What is Anzi?

Anzi is a five-second daily diary for the things you buy. Each morning it shows what you bought yesterday and asks one question: was it worth it? You answer with joy, meh or regret. Over the weeks you see which buys really make you happy.

Is Anzi a budgeting app or an expense tracker?

Not a budget. Think of it as a different kind of expense tracker: no bank, no budgets, no categories. Anzi doesn't tell you to spend less. It helps you notice how each purchase felt, so the next one is easier to choose.

Does Anzi connect to my bank?

No. You add a buy yourself in a few taps: the amount, and if you like a place and a photo. On Android, the optional Auto-log can spot payments in notifications from apps you choose. It reads them on your phone only.

Is my data private?

Yes. Your diary stays on your phone. There's no account, no cloud, no ads and no analytics. You can back it up to a file or export it as CSV whenever you want.

Is Anzi free?

Yes. Anzi is free on iPhone and Android.

Which languages does Anzi speak?

English, Italian, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Arabic, Chinese and Russian. You can set your own currency in Settings.

What does "anzi" mean?

It's an Italian word meaning "on the contrary" or "rather", used to change your mind mid-sentence: "I thought I needed it. Anzi, I don't."

★ Free on iOS & Android ★

Buy what you love.
Notice what you don't.

Anzi is free, private, and lives on your phone. No account, no bank connection — just one honest question each morning.
