The Group

Part of EL Engineering Industrial Holdings.

SCGK & Co extends selected analytical disciplines from that platform into a consumer and small-business environment — focusing on recurring expenses, subscriptions, and bill optimization. The principle is the same at every scale: identify unnecessary cost, improve financial efficiency, and create measurable value.

How we build what we publish.

01

Every statistic carries a named source and date, or is labeled as an illustrative example.

03

Savings figures are always presented as estimates.

04

05 · Governance

Your data, handled with discipline.

SCGK & Co collects the household information you enter — bills, spending estimates, goals — and your account email. It is used only to operate your membership and improve the platform. It is never sold. You can review it in Account Settings, and a one-step account deletion removes your records. Full details are in the Privacy Policy.
