Personal finance app for Mac
Trickle
See where your money went and how to keep more of it.
Overview
What Trickle is and why it exists.
Trickle turns the statements your bank lets you export into a clearer picture of your money. Import CSV, QIF or supported PDF statements, organise accounts and transactions, and explore your spending over time. Trickle Pro adds savings recommendations, budgets and goals, advanced rules, reports, themes and manual exchange rates. There are no bank logins: statements and transactions stay on your Mac. Internet access is used for coffee payments to unlock Pro and app updates.
