I like the idea of plaintext accounting and have tried a few of these options a number of times, sometimes pretty earnestly, but have never landed on a satisfactory flow. I've always ended up spending quite a lot of time building out the tooling around trying to fetch from now more than a dozen accounts and then munge/categorize things acceptably. In the end, I just fall back to pressing "Download All Accounts" in the clunky-but-serviceable Moneydance (local data FTW).
- Arcanum-XIII 3y agoI have the same issue, but in Europe. Most bank don't offert a data export, so it's fun an games to try to get YOUR data. In Belgium we have CODA for companies... but they're slightly different for each bank. I've worked on this for a middleman and it's hell, between the source data sucking and the destination being cryptic. I don't understand this: why would anyone want to block this? There are no advantages. None. For either party.
