DraftBudget

Local-first budget planning

DraftBudget is a structured budget planning tool built for teams that manage project budgets with nested line items, multi-currency totals, and overhead calculations. It was designed to replace the fragile spreadsheets that NGOs, UN agencies, and small companies use to draft donor proposals and internal budgets.

The app works locally by default. Your budget is saved in your browser so you can start working immediately, without creating an account. When you are ready, sign in to unlock cloud sync, real-time collaboration, and cross-device access.

Structured budgets

Nested headings, activities, and line items with live roll-up totals.

Multi-currency

Mix currencies in one budget with automatic FX conversion.

Collaboration

Invite team members to edit cloud budgets together in real time.

Who is it for?

  • NGO programme managers drafting donor proposals (ECHO, FCDO, UNHCR)
  • Small companies and freelancers managing project budgets
  • Teams that need a shared, structured budget with real-time totals
