I faced an unexpected fund shortage 3 months ago and had no idea what my net worth was. So I built a tool to solve it (for free).

Hey HY

Three months ago, I hit a low point. I needed to move some funds for an emergency and realised I had no idea where I actually stood.

My stocks were in Groww, my mutual funds in ICICI, I had physical gold in a locker, and I was juggling active loans. Every time I wanted an answer, I had to open four different apps and a physical diary.

I started tracking everything in an Excel sheet, but it was tedious. My wife also wanted to track our family finances, and I wanted to sharpen my AI knowledge. So, I decided to turn this into a weekend project.

The "3-Week" Evolution It started simple:

First Draft: Connected a real-time stock and MF tracker. It worked! Gold & Net Worth: Added a gold tracker and a dashboard to calculate my total net worth to the rupee. Collaboration: I added "Team Access" (Crew feature) so my wife and I could both view and update our shared corpus. My friends saw it, loved it, and started using it too. By week 3, it was a solid tool, but there was one massive pain point: Manual Entry.

The "Share Receipt" Spark Everything worked well, but logging every expense was still a manual entry drag. Since most of our spending happens via UPI, I was looking for a way to simplify it.

A friend suggested: "All these UPI apps have a 'Share' button after you pay. Just use that!"

That hit a spark. I created a UPI tracker where, after every transaction, I just share the receipt to my project's dedicated email. The system automatically reads it and enters the value for me. No more manual entry!

AI Helper & MCP Connector Since I wanted to use this to learn more about AI, I didn't stop at simple tracking.

MCP Connector: I've added a Model Context Protocol (MCP) connector. This means you can actually connect your financial data context to Claude or ChatGPT. You can ask your favourite LLM: "Based on my Corpus Tracker data, can I afford to buy a new car this year?" In-App Assistant: I’ve built a financial helper directly into the app chat. It helps you categorize, analyze, and process everything in natural language. What’s Inside? Unified Dashboard: Stocks (Groww-style), MFs, Gold, and Cash. Loan Manager: Track principal vs interest for EMIs. Share-to-Track: Forward UPI receipts via email/share for auto-logging. Crew/Family Access: Manage a shared corpus with your partner. AI Financial Helper: Chat with your data. MCP Enabled: Use your data context in Claude/ChatGPT. It's 100% Free I’m launching this for free to everyone. No hidden charges, no "premium" tiers for AI features—everything is open and available. I built this to solve my own problem, and I’m happy to share it with the community.

Feel free to ask me anything about the tech, the UPI parsing, or the AI integration. I'm actively looking for feedback to make it better!

P.S. — Special thanks to my wife for being the first alpha tester and to the friend who suggested the share button!

Congrats on the launch. Useful.

Would be useful to address the target audience upfront (Indian market)

Also, the “try for free” implies a later pricing plan. Which is not exactly clear.
