About this appAI proposal
Tallyhouse puts your stocks, ETFs, cash, other investments and debts in one net worth view. You add accounts by hand or by file import, and your numbers stay in a database you control instead of a big platform's cloud.
An AI guide reads your own holdings and answers questions in plain words: where you are concentrated, what your debts cost you, and what a change would do to your plan. It shows the numbers it used.
Built for individual investors and savers who juggle separate tools for net worth, portfolio and planning, and who do not want to hire an advisor or pay a managed service for basic guidance.

- Why this name
- A tally is a count you can check yourself; a house is a place you keep things. Together: your numbers, kept at home.

What it could be worthEstimate
What a software business making this much sells for today, from real deals. Pick a monthly revenue.
If it makes
Worth about
$194,000
Sale range $132,000 to $263,000
$120,000 a year in revenue
From 87 software businesses listed and sold on Empire Flippers in the last year, revenue vetted by the broker: they sell for about 19× their monthly revenue, most between 13× and 26×.
Measured on profit, the middle deal is 32× monthly net profit: about 2.7 years of profit.
An estimate, not an offer or financial advice. A real price depends on profit, growth, churn, how much of the work is the owner's, and the buyer.
How it would growAI proposal
How the product would reach new customers through its own use, and how the first ones would be found. A plan to test, not a result.
- Built-in loop
- No loop in the product. Tallyhouse is a personal tool, and its output is private. It reaches customers through content, communities and search rather than through its own use.
- Do they become customers?
- Test whether visitors from privacy-minded investing communities will move from the free tier to Plus or Lifetime, and whether people stay beyond the first month.
- First customers
- Self-directed individual investors who hold stocks and ETFs across two or more brokers, and who track them in spreadsheets today.
- Where to reach them
- Personal finance communities: Answer questions on net worth tracking in investing forums and share a free template with import.
- Open-source finance communities: Post a build log and comparison on developer sites where the self-hosted repository gained attention.
- Search content: Publish guides on rebalancing and debt payoff with a calculator that leads into the app.
- First milestone
- Twenty active free users, with five paying for Plus or Lifetime within 60 days, all from one community.

RisksAI inference
- RegulatoryPersonalized investment guidance may count as regulated advice in some places. Wording must stay informational, with clear disclaimers and legal review.
- AIThe AI may give wrong or overconfident answers about money. Every answer needs visible source figures and checks on the arithmetic.
- CommercialThe evidence is an open-source repository with rapid star growth. Stars may not turn into paying users when a free self-hosted version exists.
- DataWithout bank linking, manual entry and CSV imports may feel like too much work and cause drop-off. Price data licensing may also add cost.
- TechnicalA web app on a hosted database is less private than the fully local app in the evidence. The privacy claim must be tested against what users expect.
Everything marked AI proposal or AI inference was written by a model from the evidence on the opportunity page. The proposed name must be checked against trademark registers before it is used.
