Features

Everything you need to
master your finances.

The whole toolkit: budgets, portfolios, goals, loans, and AI-powered queries. No dashboards to babysit unless you actually want them.

F.01 · AI NATIVE

Talk to your money in plain English.

Connect Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. Or just use the in-app AI chat, no setup at all. That's 109 HTTP / 93 stdio tools. Ask a question, get charts and real answers back. No custom exports, no BI tool.

F.02 · IMPORT

Drop a file. Done.

CSV, Excel, OFX, QFX, PDF. Finlynq remembers how you mapped the columns and saves it as a template, so the next import is one click.

F.03 · BUDGETS

Envelope budgeting, rolled over.

Month-by-month envelopes that roll over. Know exactly what's left in Groceries, Dining, or Travel before you swipe.

GROCERIES$412 / $600DINING$188 / $250
F.04 · PORTFOLIO

Holdings, returns, benchmarks.

Live prices, XIRR, benchmarks vs SPX/QQQ/VTI, lot-tracked cost basis with FX-aware realized gains, and RRSP/TFSA/RESP contribution-room tracking. Built for people who actually track their money, not just watch it.

XIRR+14.2%
F.05 · FIRE

Project your freedom number.

Monte Carlo simulations, savings-rate scenarios, and a realistic FIRE target. See when you can stop, and what would actually move the date.

FI YEAR2034
F.06 · PRIVACY

Self-host. Or don't.

Run it on your Mac, your homelab, or our cloud. Same features either way. Per-user envelope encryption (AES-256-GCM, scrypt-derived key), and your DEK only lives in memory while you're signed in.

How it works

Three steps from sign-up
to asking your AI.

From zero to “how much did I spend on dining in Q3?” in under five minutes. No configuration, no integration headaches.

Step 01
01

Import transactions.

Upload a CSV or OFX from any bank. Finlynq remembers your columns, so every import after the first is one click.

Step 02
02

Connect your AI.

Add Finlynq as an MCP server in Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any compatible client. Takes under 60 seconds.

Step 03
03

Ask anything.

"Am I on track with my budget?" "What's my net worth?" "Any unusual charges?" Just ask.

MCP Server · Included

Your assistant meets
your finances.

A built-in MCP server exposes 109 HTTP financial tools (93 over stdio) to any compatible client over OAuth 2.1 + DCR. No custom code, no brittle exports, no exporting to a spreadsheet then copying into a prompt.

Privacy First

Zero-knowledge.
Mathematically private.

Your financial data* is encrypted with your password before it ever touches a server. We built it so we can't read it. That's not a marketing claim, it's a math one.

Step 01
Your password
Step 02
Derive key (scrypt)
Step 03
Wrap your DEK
Step 04
AES-256-GCM at rest

AES-256 encryption.

The same standard banks and governments use. Everything is encrypted before it touches storage, in transit and at rest.

Your password is the key.

Your encryption key is derived from your password via memory-hard scrypt (PBKDF2 also wraps optional backup-export passphrases). Finlynq never sees your passphrase or your plaintext data*.

Zero-knowledge architecture.

We cannot see your transactions, balances, or accounts.* It is mathematically impossible to read your data without your password.

Self-host free, forever.

Don't trust the cloud? Run the entire app on your own hardware. Full feature parity, no license fees, no data ever leaves.

* Numeric amounts, dates, and unique IDs are stored unencrypted because the database needs them to work (totals, sorting, joins, indexes). Everything else (merchant names, account names, payees, notes, tags, and categories) is encrypted with a key derived only from your password. Read the plain-English writeup or the full encryption design.

Roadmap

headed next.
