Hey guys, I built an app that follows the envelope budgeting philosophy like YNAB and with beautiful expense breakdown displayed in sankey, line, bar charts. It also tracks your crypto wallet (BTC & ERC20), bank connections through Plaid and brokerage accounts through SnapTrade. Create unlimited categories, cash/loan/credit accounts and start budgeting at https://buildyourbudget.com/

Zerosum▲3I've been a YNAB user for years but couldn't justify $109/yr for an app where I never used bank sync. So I built my own. ZeroSum is zero-based budgeting (same envelope method) with a full YNAB import wizard — bring your entire budget history over. 50+ currencies, shared budgets, analytics, keyboard shortcuts. $40/yr. Stack: React (Vite + TanStack Router) on Cloudflare Pages, Hono + tRPC on Render. Happy to talk about the technical decisions. Try it free for 35 days: https://zerosum.so

I built PocketLens because I wanted automatic bank sync without giving my transaction history to a company. Plaid recently started allowing personal developer accounts, and this provides free access to your own financial data. Existing options either require manual csv imports, or route through paid relays: Actual Budget syncs via the SimpleFIN Bridge (a third-party service between you and your data), Firefly III needs an external importer wired to an aggregator. PocketLens connects your own Plaid keys directly and transactions, balances, and brokerage holdings show up (no fee). Plaid is…

I thought I could make a personal finance app that was simpler, smarter and more privacy-focused than Monarch, YNAB and Copilot. I believe I have, but today that's up to you. While the classic story of using a variety of "analog" tools to manage money does apply to me, the main pillars that pushed me to build Cadence Money were: - Pay for the level of syncing that's used including none - No built-in AI - Fully cross-platform including mobile browsers - Passkeys available day one - Proper Canadian support - No ads even for a book After seven years at 1Password as a Lead PM, I can safely say…

finagg is a Python package and CLI that enables you to aggregate and update free financial data from a handful of high quality data sources all within your own SQL database.
