cash-path

What

  • We launched cash-path, an app that shows a cash account's projected running balance. We'd love some early feedback. Check it out in TestFlight.

Why

  • Bank apps show current balance & past transactions.

  • Popular personal finance apps aggregate, budget, and report.

  • Neither knows if your rent/mortgage hits before your paycheck or how much your credit card payment will be.

  • Giving a personal finance tool access to all your banking and billing data is a privacy concern.

Who

  • You want to minimize your checking balance and invest the extra.

  • Most of your account's transactions are automatically recurring.

  • You know where and how much you are spending.

  • You avoid overdraft fees.

How

  • Look up your current balance and manually enter in the app.

  • Set up your account's recurring bills: rent/mortgage, paycheck, and usual budgeted amounts for things like credit card and utilities.

  • Future transactions are generated according to bill date & recurrence interval, showing the running balance.

  • Edit transaction instances when you get the utility statement or decide how much you'll pay on the credit card.

  • Mark transactions as paid when they show on your banking app & are reflected in its current balance. They remain but no longer affect the running balance. Delete when no longer needed.

When

  • Every two weeks or so, check your banking app for balance and posted transactions. Update instance amounts based on your incoming statements.

  • New upcoming transactions are automatically entered.
