I built my own financial planinng app

A few years ago, I started managing my finances using Google Sheets. It worked fine for a while, but then I hit some limitations. As my financial planning needs grew more complex, I found myself struggling with tracking assets and forecasting future financial scenarios. Thus, I started to work in my spare time on building FinancialAha: https://www.financialaha.com - a financial planning app designed to do everything my spreadsheets couldn’t.

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

A few years ago, I started managing my finances using Google Sheets. It worked fine for a while, but then I hit some limitations. As my financial planning needs grew more complex, I found myself struggling with tracking assets and forecasting future financial scenarios. Thus, I started to work in my spare time on building FinancialAha: https://www.financialaha.com - a financial planning app designed to do everything my spreadsheets couldn’t. It is completely free and I intend to add some paid features later on as listed on the pricing page, but I want to keep it free for people that need to do basic financial planinng and projections. Currently it works best on desktop screens, and I working on making it available on mobile devices. Key Features: - track all your assets & debt - manage various types of assets including cash, stocks, real estate, digital assets, etc., all in one place. - cash flow insights - visualize and optimize your income and spending habits. Understand where your money is going and plan smarter. - financial projections - use your current data to create realistic projections, plan for future expenses or investments, and keep your finances on track. - privacy and Security - by default, your data remains in your browser, and when stored, it's encrypted end-to-end. The data never gets on our servers unencrypted and all the encrypt/decrypt is done on client. This way, the plain data never gets to FinancialAha. You can try it for free and see how it works. Check it out here: https://www.financialaha.com I'd love to hear your feedback!

    Keep track of earning expenses better than excel sheets2011 · ▲33

    I started to track my expenses on excel sheets earlier this year. It was interesting to see how much I spent casually on just another hangout with friends or on education. Excel sheets are painful, at least for me. So I built this with my friend: (it's just MVP) http://accountant.besperk.com Edit: Coming up next: > Mobile site and apps asap. > Graphs and reports > SSL > Custom Alerts (when you cross a certain limit, that you define, for certain tag) > Pre populated tags.
