Be involved in your financial decisions
Automated finance tools are great, except when they aren’t. We provide you with tools that are quick to use, but ultimately you are in control. We help you learn, instead of dictating.Meticulously designed for speed
A beautifully designed interface is fine-tuned to get out of your way and make it as fast as possible to explore your finances.Unabashedly local-first software
Actual is a local app, plain and simple. Your data is synced in the background so all devices have access, but the app totally works regardless of your network connection. This also allows end-to-end encryption to keep your data private.Powerful budgeting made simple
