Three questions most money apps can’t answer

148 / day

What does it cost me to live for one day? Porul turns your rent, EMIs, insurance and everyday expenses into one daily number.

2,124.70 vs 2,300

Is my loan costing what the bank said? Enter your loan and the EMI you were quoted. Porul shows the fair EMI and any hidden cost, side by side.

736 / month

What do I need to set aside for my goal? Give it a target and a date. Porul works out the monthly amount using compound growth.

Everything in one calm place

A separate book for a shop, a wedding or a trip, with its own money in and money out. It never mixes with your daily numbers, and you move an amount across only when you choose. Learn more

Loan calculator

Compare the bank’s EMI with the fair EMI, browse the full schedule, and test prepayment plans to see the time and interest they’d save. Learn more

Built on three ideas

Numbers, not verdicts

Porul is a calculator, not an adviser. It shows you the facts and the figures. It never tells you what to do with your money.

Private by design

Your data lives on your phone. There’s no Porul server holding your finances, no bank connection and no ads. Back up to your own Google Drive, iCloud or a folder you choose. How privacy works

Yours, wherever you are

Pick from every currency in circulation and the number format you read best: 1,000,000, 10,00,000 or 1.000.000,00. Works on iPhone and Android, online or off.

Why “Porul”?

Porul (பொருள்) is a Tamil word that means both wealth and meaning. We built the app around that idea: money matters because of what it means in your life.

Each day, the home screen carries a short couplet from the Thirukkural, the ancient Tamil work of wisdom by Thiruvalluvar.

Free for daily tracking

The diary, one Cash Book, the Daily Life Cost, transactions, export and backup are free. Porul Premium adds Budget, Loans, Goals, Analytics and more Cash Books, with a 7-day free trial and monthly or yearly plans. See what’s included
