Your first month with Meridian

From your first copy to your first review.

A practical path, with guides and subscription support available as you get familiar with the system.

  1. Make it yours

    A system in your own Google Drive.

    Copy the Meridian workbooks, follow the setup guide to connect them, and configure your accounts, labels, and settings.

    You bring: a Google account and your account list.

  2. Build your starting picture

    Records and balances with a clear source.

    Import your Wallet CSV records, enter month-end balances and payroll details, then add your budgets, holdings, and loans where relevant.

    You bring: your exports, statements, and planning assumptions.

  3. Run your first review

    A connected view to review and act on.

    Check the visible differences, review your statements and spending forecast, then assess your reserve and investment scenarios in context.

    You do: verify inputs and resolve flagged differences.

Then, a rhythm you can repeat.

Import new records, confirm your balances, clear flagged differences, and review what changed. Update plans and assumptions when your circumstances change.

Plan for an initial setup.

Setup and monthly effort depend on your records and account complexity. Transaction import is manual; support helps with using Meridian, while you remain responsible for your data and financial decisions.

A note from Meridian’s creator

Built for people who want to understand their money.

Justine Kizhakkinedath AstralForge Labs

I’m building Meridian around a simple belief: you should be able to follow the numbers behind your financial decisions.

That means connecting the statements, spending plans, reserves, and investment assumptions—and keeping the underlying files in your hands. My goal is to make a thoughtful review easier to carry out, with room to inspect and question what you see.

The design partner programme is a chance to build that experience with the people using it. Tell me where the workflow helps, where it gets in your way, and what deserves attention next. Your subscription includes customer support and every update released while it’s active, with an upgrade guide.
