katydid

auto-detect recurring patterns from your books

katydid scans your sycamore ledger for vendors that hit roughly the same amount on a similar day each month. one click pins any match as a tracked recurring expense — no setup.

3 steps~2 min
  1. 1

    open the recurring candidates panel

    the panel surfaces in katydid's main view. it lists every detected pattern with vendor, average amount, and how many cycles it's seen.

  2. 2

    review the matches

    each candidate has a "pin as recurring" button. patterns that aren't actually recurring (one-off purchases that happen to repeat by coincidence) can be dismissed.

  3. 3

    click pin

    the candidate becomes a fixed monthly schedule using the day-of-month from the most recent occurrence. you can edit the schedule from the fixed tab if needed.

    tip

    this is the fastest way to set up katydid on day one. instead of typing every recurring expense from memory, let the auto-detect surface them and pin in bulk.
