Does this talk to an API to get the bank data or are you manually entering it?


Nope, no APIs - instead, I've focussed on a smooth workflow for statement uploads and options for manual transaction reporting.

I actually had a look around for APIs, and couldn't find anything that fitted with what I was trying to do: most services are specific to certain countries, and even with the various Open Banking initiatives around the world coverage is still limited and password storage upstream is often required (Plaid is obviously the standout here, although there are competitors and regional equivalents). That's expressly what I'm trying to avoid: ideally all of that could be managed locally in the browser, but until it can I'm not expecting to use it.
