Easy Hisab
Easy Hisab vs Tricount: which should you use in India?
The short answer: for groups in India, Easy Hisab is the better pick over Tricount. Both are free with no limit on entries, but in Easy Hisab an entry is one typed or spoken line in Hindi or English, or a photo, screenshot or statement PDF, and settlement opens whichever UPI app you use. Easy Hisab is always free for unlimited entries, groups and people; you pay only for AI use beyond the free monthly allowance. It works completely offline, so a trek, a village visit or a flight still gets recorded and syncs later; only AI reading of photos and statements waits for a connection. Tricount is the better pick in one case: a trip abroad in several currencies, where everyone joins from a shared link without signing up. We make Easy Hisab, so read the table and judge for yourself.

Why Easy Hisab: adding the entry is the whole job
- Type it or say it. “350 chai with Rahul and Priya” or “Ramesh ko 500 diye” becomes a full entry: amount, category, people and split. No form.
- Reads bills, screenshots and statements. Photograph a bill, pick a UPI screenshot or a WhatsApp message, or hand over a bank statement PDF; every row lands on one review screen and saves in one tap.
- Works completely offline. Everything is saved on the phone first; it syncs when you are back. Only AI reading waits for a connection.
- Settles over any UPI app. Pay with the amount filled in, record the payment on the way back, log cash and partial payments. The balance says who has to pay whom in plain words.
- Always free for unlimited entries. Groups, splits, the account, settlement, offline and export have no limit on entries, groups or people. Pro only raises the AI allowance.
| Each month | Free | Pro (₹99/month or ₹899/year) |
|---|---|---|
| AI-parsed typed entries | 50 | 2,000 |
| Voice entries | 10 | 500 |
| Receipt and screenshot scans | 10 | 150 |
| Bank or card statement PDFs | 2 | 10 |
| Typed entries by hand, groups, splits, accounts, UPI settlement, export | Unlimited | Unlimited |

- In Tricount, note each person's current balance: who has to pay whom, and how much. Each tricount's balance screen shows where everyone stands.
- In Easy Hisab, create the group, or add each friend. Friends who will not install anything still get an account on your side.
