Chat-first instead of form-first
HippoSplit is built around a shared chat. Add an expense by typing a message, dropping a photo, or pasting a receipt, no separate add-expense form for every entry.
A Splitwise alternative built around chat
HippoSplit is a chat-first expense tracker with AI receipt parsing and guest access. If you are looking for an alternative way to split expenses with friends, family, or roommates, here is what HippoSplit focuses on.
Start FreeAI receipt parsing built in
Snap a receipt and HippoSplit pulls out the items, totals, and tax. Assign items to people for an accurate, itemized split, useful when the bill is more complex than an even share.
Guests join with a link
Share a group with friends and they can open it without creating an account. Guest access is read-only, they see expenses and balances right away, and only need to sign in (free) if they want to add or edit something.
Privacy-first positioning
Your group's financial data is encrypted and not used to serve ads or sold to third parties. You can export or delete your data at any time.
- Encrypted at rest and in transit
- No ads, no tracking, no data sales
- Export or delete on demand
