Sample numbers

The problem

Money apps assume a steady paycheck.
Lots of people don't get one.

Budgets break

A plan built on your best month falls apart in your slowest one.

Taxes sneak up

Self-employed income means saving for taxes nobody withholds.

Two lives, one account

Personal and business spending get tangled together.

The solution

HighWater plans around the swings.

Know your waterline

Taxes, bills, and your buffer form a line. Everything above it is safe to spend until your next deposit, and HighWater shows the next 60 days.

Taxes set aside, automatically

A share of every deposit is held for the IRS and your state, with quarterly due dates and a business-expense export for your CPA.

Two pockets, one view

Mark each transaction business or personal once, teach a rule, and it stays sorted for tax time.

Bills before they hit

Rent, insurance, phone, subscriptions: counted ahead of time, so a slow week never surprises you.

Goals in your words

An emergency fund, a card at zero, a boat. Set as many as you like and watch the pace each one needs.

Watch the tide rise

Net worth tracked month over month, so you see progress, not just this week's balance.

Keel, your money co-pilot Coming soon
