Show HN: Expense AI – Smarter Expense Tracking with AI
Hi HN,
I’m Wahab, one of the creators of Expense AI, a personal finance management app that uses AI to make tracking and analyzing expenses effortlessly. You can try it out here: https://expenseai.app.
The Backstory
I built Expense AI because I struggled to manage my own finances effectively. I’d tried apps that required too much manual entry or didn’t give actionable insights. My previous project, Trackfundx, aimed to solve a similar problem by connecting multiple bank accounts but faced challenges with transaction accuracy and tech limitations.
With Expense AI, I wanted to take a different approach by leveraging AI to simplify the process—turning receipts into structured data, categorizing expenses, and even generating custom reports—all while keeping things intuitive.
What It Does
– Receipt Automation: Snap photos, forward email receipts, or upload PDFs. Expense AI extracts the details and categorizes them for you.
– Customizable Reports: Generate tailored reports in PDF or spreadsheet format with advanced filters like tags, stores, and date ranges.
– Manual Entry: Add expenses manually for transactions without receipts.
– Email Integration: Set up auto-forwarding for your bank alerts, and Expense AI will automatically record and categorize the transactions.
Why It’s Different
– AI-Powered Insights: The app not only tracks expenses but also identifies patterns and helps with financial planning.
– Flexibility: Supports multiple input methods (manual, email, receipt scanning) and works across various currencies.
– Customization: Users can define tags, select report columns, and filter data to match their needs.
What’s Next
We’re planning to introduce:
– Income Tracking to provide a holistic view of finances.
– Budgeting Tools for better financial planning.
– Multi-User Support for businesses to track team expenses.
I’d love to hear your thoughts, feedback, or suggestions. Also, if you encounter any issues while trying it out, let me know!
