FinAntes

02/2025 - 05/2025

Project Overview

FinAntes is a comprehensive financial management web application designed to give users complete control over their financial life in one centralized platform. The application features an interactive dashboard with customizable widgets that provide visual representations of budget status, spending patterns, and investment performance. Users can create personalized budget categories, set spending limits with automated alerts, and seamlessly import/export financial data from various sources. The application offers three distinct service tiers to accommodate users with different needs, from basic budget tracking to advanced investment portfolio analysis.

Problem

Many financial tracking tools are either too simple or too complex for the average user, and usually don't provide a holistic view of one's finances including investments and budgeting in one place.

Solution

FinAntes was designed to bridge the gap between overly simplified and overly complex financial tools. It provides a customizable experience that grows with the user's needs through three service tiers.
