Ledger turns your bank statements into one connected plan: spending, a budget, a running log and a retirement projection that all update together. Free, open source, no bank logins, no accounts.
I built it because most money apps stop at a spending chart and a monthly budget. Real planning has more moving parts, and they depend on each other: a paycheck is not your salary (a 401k deferral lowers income tax but not FICA, medical premiums lower both, and an employer match never hits your deposit), every debt has its own payment that frees up when it is paid off, and a 401k and a savings account are not the same money.
Ledger connects all of it. Your statements feed Spending, Spending feeds the Budget, the Budget's income and leftover feed the calculators and the Retirement plan, and your balances feed both. Change your salary once and the budget, rent scenarios and retirement projection all move.
How it works: download your statements from any bank, give them to an AI assistant (Claude, ChatGPT or Codex) with Ledger's import prompt, and upload the file it makes. Ledger itself never sees your statements, has no server and no accounts. Your data stays in your browser or on your own computer.

Hi Product Hunt, I'm the maker of Ledger.

It's free and open source (MIT), and I'd love to hear what is missing: https://github.com/itstoyboxlabs/ledger
