Interesting that you went the AI-automation route on this. I built Money Me on almost the opposite bet: manual entry is a feature, not a gap to close. When you have to type "62, dinner out" you actually register it, auto-categorized transactions from a linked account just become a feed nobody reads. Where I focused differently too is the time direction. Most budgeting tools, AI or not, are looking backward at what you already spent. Money Me is built to look forward, income and bills laid out month by month so you can see a shortfall coming before it happens rather than explaining it after. No bank linking there either. It's live on Google Play if you want to compare notes on the manual vs automated debate: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.moneyme.twa&referrer=utm_source%3Ddevto%26utm_medium%3Dreferral
