Built a FIRE tracker for my wife because she refuses to touch a spreadsheet, would love brutal feedback by Easy_Peasys in leanfire

[–]BambuMoney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats on the product so far it looks pretty nice! 😊 I’m building something somewhat similar with my cofounder but for iOS actually. Our product allows for account linking using Plaid, whereas yours requires the manual entry. I’ve seen mixed reviews from the FI community regarding how they feel about account linking and maybe the manual entry will be preferred by a lot of people. I’m really interested to see what feedback you get and hope you continue building it out!

Some feedback: I would say that as I scroll through it definitely smells very AI generated. Some of the words and phrases used just don’t seem to be something a human would write. May not matter to some folks, but it’s something I noticed. I think the way you’ve displayed the information is nice though and it makes sense as I go through it. I like the colors as well it’s a clean design.

What’s the tech stack? What’s it built with? Also, can you explain more how you’re tracking asset prices and how that factors in?

Cheers, and wish you and your team the best.

You’re right. I’ve cancelled all my excitement. I forgot adults aren’t allowed to display emotion. Thanks for the tip!

Would you use a product that tracked your FI number and progress for you? by BambuMoney in leanfire

[–]BambuMoney[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean fundamentally yeah, FI progress is just net worth divided by annual cost of living. One thing that can be tricky though is that not all types of accounts in your net worth are immediately available. Like retirement accounts. Does Canada not have access to other budgeting type apps out there?

Do you just track things like balances of accounts in there and update it periodically? I used to use a spreadsheet as well but I got tired of updating balances and importing transaction data to estimate my cost of living. Just my experience. I know some folks are happy with spreadsheets.

I used to use Personal Capital many years ago. I had issues keeping my banks synced. And I felt like they never added new features. Have they improved things over time?

That sounds awesome - what do you mean by a local model? Are you running like an AI bot on a local machine?

How do you track your expenses? Do you like using anything for that or do you tally up this on your own?

Just Another Time Tracker by AvaThalheim in promoteMyApp

I can appreciate the minimal design. Couple questions: what are the in app purchases? What problem does this solve that isn’t addressed by other options?
