24 alternatives to PocketLens – free, self-hosted Mint alternative via Plaid
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…

Ray▲293I've been using this daily for 4 months and figured others might find it useful. This is my first open source project so would love any feedback. Ray connects to your bank via Plaid, stores everything in an encrypted local SQLite database, and lets you ask questions about your finances in natural language. No cloud, no account, your data is stored on your machine. Before anything reaches the LLM, all PII is stripped — your name, companies, transaction details are redacted and replaced with tokens, then rehydrated locally in the response. The AI never sees who you are.

Pocket is shutting down and I really, really liked it. So I built woomarks, an app that let's you save links with a similar UI. It's very minimal, but it's doing everything I liked from Pocket and you can bulk import your links and use the app or self-host. - Public app that you can test: https://woomarks.com/ - My self-hosted version, where you can see my saves: https://roberto.fyi/bookmarks/ - Repository if you want to self-host: https://github.com/earlyriser/woomarks Export links from Pocket here:…

Hi HN, I built Whisper Money because I was frustrated that every personal finance app wanted full access to my bank credentials, fed my transactions into AI systems, or sold my spending data to third parties. Whisper Money takes a different approach: - *No bank credential sharing* - Import your transactions via CSV/XLS exports from your bank. No Plaid, no OAuth to your bank, no third-party integrations that can get breached. - *No AI snooping* - Your transactions are never fed into AI systems you don't control. - *No third-party data sharing* - Your financial data is never shared with…

plaidify▲3Every AI agent hits the same wall: the world's most valuable data is locked behind login forms. Bank balances, utility bills, insurance policies, academic transcripts — none of them have APIs. Plaid covers banks for $500+/mo. Everything else? You write fragile Selenium scripts. Plaidify is open-source infrastructure that turns any login-protected website into a REST API. You drop a JSON "blueprint" into the connectors folder — CSS selectors for username, password, submit, and what to extract — and you get a structured JSON endpoint. No scraper code to write. It's designed specifically…

Fungible is a terminal-based personal finance app that fills the Mint-shaped void in my life. It runs using your own plaid credentials (optional) and has its own integrated chatbot (also optional and BYO key). You connect banks via Plaid or import CSVs. Transactions get auto-categorized by rules you define. On top of normal categories there's a flexibility layer (fixed / flexible / discretionary) so you can see at a glance what's actually controllable spending. There are also tags (also separate from categories) for isolating things like trips or hobbies. The financial health…
