Your finances. Your computer. Period.

Desktop personal finance app that never connects to a server unless you ask it to.

The Problem

Privacy-conscious people are trapped between bad choices: cloud services that harvest your financial data, or DIY solutions like Docker stacks and spreadsheets that require technical expertise. Most of us want to own our financial data without the setup headache.

The Solution

VaultBooks is a lightweight desktop app that runs entirely locally—no accounts, no uploads, no Plaid. Import bank CSVs, tag transactions, and see spending trends in minutes. Optional encrypted cloud sync (you hold the keys) for backups and cross-device access. Just download, open, and go.

✓ Local-first: all data stays on your machine by default, no account required

✓ CSV import: connect to any bank, no Plaid integration or OAuth needed

✓ Optional encrypted cloud sync: your keys, your control, not ours

✓ Smart categorization: tag transactions once, auto-tag the rest

✓ Privacy-respecting dashboard: spending trends, net worth, no analytics tracking

Built For

Privacy-conscious professionals (lawyers, engineers, consultants), freelancers, and small business owners aged 28-55 who manage personal + business finances and distrust surveillance capitalism.
