Monetr
After the bills are covered, how much is actually safe to spend? monetr organizes an entire
budgeting application around that one question. Inspired by the defunct Simple bank, it
budgets paycheck by paycheck rather than month by month. Funding schedules encode when you get
paid - including multiple schedules per account and a weekend-exclusion option for deposits
that land early - and every expense or savings goal is tied to one. monetr then calculates how
much of each recurring obligation (rent, car payment, subscriptions, on any repeat interval)
to set aside from each paycheck, so a large bill never has to come out of a single check. What
remains after allocations is surfaced as Free-To-Use, and a forecasting timeline projects
contributions, due dates, and leftover funds forward so low-balance periods are visible before
they happen. Transactions arrive either as OFX uploads from your bank or automatically through
a Plaid connection using your own API credentials, keeping balances and transactions synced
without manual entry. The app is mobile-friendly and installable as a PWA on desktop or phone.
Self-hosting via Docker Compose is completely free, with all source code public and your
financial data on your own hardware.
