ExpenseOwl is a lightweight web application for tracking personal expenses. It helps you record transactions, organize them into categories, and review spending over time so you can keep better awareness of your finances.

Key Features

  • Create and manage expense entries (amount, date, notes)
  • Categorize expenses to analyze spending by type
  • Basic reporting views (totals over time and category breakdowns)
  • Simple web UI intended for personal use
  • Data stored in an application database for later review

Use Cases

  • Track day-to-day personal spending and see monthly totals
  • Monitor category-based budgets (e.g., food, transport, utilities)
  • Export or review historical spending for tax-time reference

Limitations and Considerations

  • Feature set appears focused on single-user personal tracking; advanced capabilities (bank sync, receipts/OCR, multi-currency) are not emphasized in the project materials.

ExpenseOwl is a small, straightforward expense tracker suited to individuals who want a simple self-managed way to log expenses and review summaries. If you need automation like bank integrations or complex budgeting workflows, you may want a more full-featured finance platform.
