Every budgeting app showed us charts of last month's groceries. We wanted to know where our money was going, not where it went. So we built it ourselves. Meet the two people behind Flan: theflan.app/about

Last month's spending report is a clue. It is not a plan. A plan says what happens if rent rises or a raise lands 📐 Let's talk about it. #FinancialPlanning #Projections #Budgeting #FutureSelf #MoneyModel theflan.app/blog/you-need-a-…

Two tools trying to make personal finance feel less fragmented 👀 1️⃣ @calculatoraiapp An AI workspace that pulls your whole money life into one place. Upload paystubs, bank statements, brokerage screenshots, receipts, it extracts the data and feeds the right trackers and calculators. Investments, budgets, debt, dividends, invoices, and an AI assistant all stay connected so you’re not bouncing between five different apps. 2️⃣ @TheFlanApp More future-focused. It’s built for couples and young professionals who want to see where their money is heading, not just where it went. Projection-first budgeting, shared goals, and life-event planning. Available on iOS and web (Android coming). One is about connecting everything you already have so decisions get easier. The other is about visualizing the path ahead together. Which feels more useful right now, a unified financial workspace or clearer projections of what’s next?

Avalanche or snowball is fine. Switching every month because a podcast said something new? That's how balances stick around 🎯 Got 4 minutes? #DebtPayoff #Avalanche #Snowball #PersonalFinance #Budgeting theflan.app/blog/which-debt-…
Which Debt to Pay First: Avalanche vs Snowball | Flan Files

Which Debt to Pay First: Avalanche vs Snowball | Flan Files

Pay every minimum, then send extra to one debt: highest APR first saves the most interest, smallest balance first wins sooner. Catch up anything past due first.
