The Challenge:
Most personal finance apps are built for salaried workers — fixed pay, predictable dates, consistent amounts. For pilots, gig workers, and freelancers whose income shifts based on hours flown, trips completed, or contracts closed, those tools fall apart immediately. Pilot Paycheck was built to close that gap. The problem isn't just tracking what you've spent, it's knowing what you actually have left once your next paycheck lands and your bills are covered.

The approach:
The design philosophy was simplicity under complexity. The underlying financial calculations for variable income are genuinely complicated, income shifts, taxes adjust, overtime is unpredictable. None of that belongs on screen.
2
The Result
A clean, production-ready Mobile app that gives variable-income workers the financial clarity most apps reserve for salaried users. 14 screens across onboarding, dashboard, forecast, and calendar.
