Our Story

"What if there was a budgeting app we actually liked using?"

"What if we built it ourselves?"

- Joe & Kaitie (Co-founders of Ranger) in 2023

Joe & Kaitie (Co-founders of Ranger)

In 2023, our small team wrote down this mission: Empower people to have a healthy relationship with their finances, free from fear-based decision making.

We're firm believers that the best decisions in life are ones made free from fear. Of all the budgeting apps we've used over the years, none struck the right balance of friendly, realistic, and easy to use. We started building Ranger because we wanted a budgeting app that was right not only for us, but also the many friends and family we'd seen struggle with finances over the years. A tool where we could push boundaries and build off of sound fundamentals.

We don't have any funding, we don't have any brand deals, we aren't trying to take over the world - we just want to build a tool to help people.

We're thankful to have a community of users who've found Ranger helpful. We'd love for you to join that community!

A budgeting method that works.

We use proven budgeting principles to help you get started and stay on track. You control all of your money, down to the last cent. Want to learn more? Check out our guides!
