Features
Everything a household needs to stay on top of money
Built as a modern take on Firefly III, with the same solid accounting underneath and a much faster way to use it day to day.
Budgets and goals
Monthly budgets that reset or roll over, savings goals with progress, and a warning before you overspend.
Bills and subscriptions
Know what is due and what is already paid this period, with a reminder before each due date.
Recurring transactions
Salary, rent and memberships are recorded for you on schedule, daily to yearly, with skips and end dates.
Rules that do the filing
Set categories, tags and budgets from the description, amount or account. Test a rule first, then apply it to past transactions.
Reports and search
Income against expenses, net worth over time and spending by category, tag or payee. Search with filters and save the ones you reuse.
Multi-currency
Accounts in any currency, foreign amounts on transactions, and exchange rates fetched on a schedule so totals add up in your main currency.
Import, export and receipts
Import CSV or camt.053 bank statements, attach receipt photos, and export everything to a JSON backup whenever you like.
Alerts that reach you
Budget, bill, balance and large spending alerts by email, browser push, ntfy or the mobile app, with quiet hours.
