Hi, I'm a dad building tools I wished existed.

PocketMoneyLab started as a side project while I was building KoalaCash, a virtual pocket money app for families. I kept hitting the same wall every parent hits: I wanted a decent chore chart, and everything online was either behind a signup, riddled with ads, or asking for my card details.

So I made the tools free. No accounts. No paywall. The result appears before I ever ask you for anything. If you find them useful, share them with another parent - that's the whole business model.

Everything here is UK-first: pounds, UK benchmarks, and advice that fits how families here actually run. It's a work in progress, and I'm adding tools as fast as I can build them.

If turning chores into virtual pocket money sounds useful, KoalaCash is the app version of all this - kids earn, tap a real-feeling card to spend on rewards you control, and save towards goals, all with no real money. Take a look below if you're curious.
