Your bills know when payday is. Do you?

Somewhere in your account, a tiny hero is treading water. The ocean rises when your balance drops below what you should have saved. They're fine — for now. Whether they stay that way is entirely up to you.

Keep Above is a forward-focused budget app built on one idea: sinking funds. Instead of guilt-tripping you about last Tuesday's coffee, we point everything forward. Every projection, every number, every graph is aimed at what's coming — not what already happened.

Add your bills. Add your income. We calculate a running "safe minimum balance" — the exact amount you should have right now to cover every upcoming expense. Hit that number and you're ready for every bill on your radar. Miss it and at least you know.

🏊 THE HERO SITUATION

Your dashboard is an ocean. If your balance is above your safe minimum, the platform floats and your hero is vibing. If it drops below, the platform sinks and things get... hostile.

Your hero can drown. Creatures attack. Limbs are lost. Eyes go missing (we auto-equip an eye patch). Keep them alive by earning energy daily and buying power-ups, cosmetics, and survival gear. Snorkels. Dive suits. Gills. A bubble shield. Over 60 upgrades, each more unhinged than the last.

How long can your hero survive your budget? That's the game.

📊 SINKING FUND MATH THAT WORKS

The app tracks every upcoming bill, checks today's date, and calculates exactly how much you should have reserved right now. Rent due in a week? Fully funded and locked into your safe minimum balance. Annual subscription in 5 months? We're tracking how far along you should be.

No envelopes. No categories. No manual allocation. Just transparent math showing what's spoken for and what's free to spend.

🧠 WHY KEEP ABOVE?

Most budget apps are boring spreadsheets with a coat of paint, or confetti-powered shame machines tracking every dollar you already spent. Keep Above doesn't care about your past. We care about your future.

Enter your balance. Add your recurring bills and income. The app does the math. The hero provides the motivation. No feeds. No insights. No "you spent $47 at Starbucks" notifications. Just a clear view of what's coming, what's funded, and what's free.

The bills are coming whether you plan for them or not. Might as well be ready — and give your little hero a fighting chance.
