The Problem
I've tried multiple personal finance apps and they all have some issues:
- Expensive: $100+/year for essential features
- Paywalls: Core functionality hidden behind upgrades
- Poor UX: Clunky interfaces, dated design
- Limited features: Missing key functionality or forcing compromises
What I'm Building (Nothing to sell)
A personal finance tool that targets a specific group of people and has all the features tailored for them.
What I Need From You
Before building features nobody wants, I need to validate what actually matters.
3-minute survey: https://tally.so/r/rjaWVl
Key questions:
- What frustrates you most about finance tracking?
- Why do people abandon finance apps?
- What features are must-haves vs. nice-to-haves?
- What would make you stick with a tool long-term?
Full Transparency
- Nothing to sell
- Personal project I'm building for myself (and people that want to try it out).
- Your feedback shapes what gets built: Honest "this won't work" feedback > polite encouragement
- Just want to build something genuinely useful
Especially Valuable If You:
- Have tried and abandoned finance apps
- Currently struggle with tracking finances
- Have strong opinions on YNAB/Mint/Monarch/etc.
- Work in fintech or have built finance tools
- Manage money across multiple countries/currencies
