I'd rather install software than 'sign up' to use something hosted elsewhere, especially for anything involving private information especially finances.
I was interested in this, but not being able to clone it from GitHub and run it on a local machine, immediately turned me off and made me think "this is nothing but an ad".
I found the "Sign up for free" option too misleading for my preferences: it leads you to create a project, which immediately leads to a payment page. I guess I did "sign up for free", but I'm not sure what signing up got me. Kudos on getting my email —— I hope I don't get any marketing materials I didn't consent to.
If you'd like, I can delete your account. Just use the feedback widget on the site to let me know which account you want to be deleted. Also, rest assured, I don't send any marketing materials.
This looks like way more work than just using a spreadsheet. Kanban don’t seem like the right abstraction for financial planning. How does this actually prevent budget overrun when nothing is automated? It seems like the data is only accurate if someone correctly enters it and drags the boxes into the appropriate columns. The app looks nice, but this feels like a solution in search of a problem. You could easily pivo…
Actually I could see this being very popular for wedding planning; something inherently collaborative, with clear categories, that people are actively trying to budget to a specific number. I mean yes, numerous spreadsheet templates exist for this, but you're basically selling a pleasant interface (it does look great!). I have a harder time imagining this for business use cases, unless maybe you really focus on the a…
Could you let me know who did the demo video? Looks great.
Loved the idea! Admit I should use for a while because it's unclear if it's really ergonomic, but overall super interesting. Congratulations on the launch!
I signed up expecting to be able to at least give it a try for free but I was almost immediately shown a subscription plan change. Is there a way to delete my account?
I don't understand the problem this solves. It appears this is for a business to track project expenses? Don't businesses use actual accounting software to track expenses, etc.? How does this reflect or compete with that? I don't think this makes any sense for personal finance.
My guess is that they were trying to address the collaboration aspect of budgeting. It is usually a fairly large group planning effort where the budget starts out looking a certain way and is iterated on rather quickly (hopefully, and herein lies the problem) as input is reconciled and ideas are explored. However, this product seems to use a planning and collaboration methodology to track actual money movement. Somet…
I like how this uses something familiar (Kanban) in a novel way to address the real-time tracking of a budget. I wonder if maybe another useful feature would be to schedule a card to be automatically moved to another column at a certain date for things like contract fulfillment, or schedule a recurring card to be added each month for paychecks and monthly bills. Or is that already a feature? I could also see building…
Well... Nice UI but... I track my finances with org-mode and Beancount/Fava for UI and well it's far more clear for me, not only because the current state of things but because the "new views" I can easily make. Kanban was born to help mass produce mechanical parts, and for that's is very effective, but to follow or design things, like many do today, it's not good at all IMVHO...
