What's coming to Lane
Budgeting, planning, and more — after we nail tracking for car-income cash flow.
Roadmap posts often overpromise — you want to know what works today before betting on what's next.
Roadmap posts often overpromise. This one is meant to be boring in a good way: what works today for people who rent cars, what is next, and how we ship. If you are deciding whether to start a trial, you want today’s product — not a pitch deck.
Live today
Tracking: Plaid bank sync, transactions, cash flow charts, net worth from synced balances, and AI chat grounded in your accounts. That combination is the core loop for hosts who need payouts and vehicle costs in one place.
Pricing with a free trial on Starter and Pro. Compare pages that say where Monarch, YNAB, and others are ahead. Solutions pages for Turo hosts, fleet operators, and car rental businesses — because the product story is car-income clarity, not generic envelope coaching.
Coming next
Budgeting with flexible budgets and custom categories. Planning with savings and debt goals. Collaboration so operators who share a business can review the same synced picture. We will announce each slice on What’s new — not bury it in vague marketing.
Budgets will matter more once your history already shows real cleaning averages and insurance cadence. That is why we ship Tracking first: the roadmap is sequenced on purpose for irregular car income, not as an excuse.
| Pillar | Status | Why it matters for car income |
|---|---|---|
| Track | Live | See deposits and vehicle costs from the bank |
| Budget | Coming | Caps after you know real operating averages |
| Plan | Coming | Goals once cash flow is trustworthy |
How we ship
Small, reliable releases beat big bang launches that break sync. Bank connections are the product. If sync is wrong, nothing else matters — not charts, not AI, not a prettier budget screen.
We would rather ship a clear Tracking experience hosts can trust this month than claim a full fleet accounting suite we have not built. Honesty is part of the roadmap.
What to do while you wait
Start with Tracking now so your history is ready when Budget and Plan land. Connect the accounts that hold trip money and vehicle spend. Ask AI the questions you already argue about: which month cleared after costs, whether a car covers its payment, what category is quietly eating margin.
That history compounds. When budgets arrive, they will sit on months of real bank data instead of a blank worksheet and optimistic utilization assumptions.

Frequently asked questions
Is budgeting available now?
Not yet. Tracking and AI are live; flexible budgets are next on the roadmap. Watch What’s new for release notes.
Will Lane become a full fleet ERP?
No. Lane is sync-first money clarity and AI on your transactions. Deep fleet operations software is a different category.
Should I wait for budgets before starting?
No. Connecting banks now builds the history budgets will use. Waiting only delays clarity on whether cars are paying for themselves.
