Stoke Money – Personal finance app built around a cash flow forecast

Hi HN,I've been through many finance tracking apps, starting with Personal Capital, then Monarch, and most recently Copilot. None of them have worked perfectly for my needs.All of these apps tend to model “cash flow” as the net sum of your transactions during a month, yet while credit card charges are reported immediately, they are typically deducted from checking (cash) accounts the following month when the bill is due. As a result, I've always had to maintain a separate spreadsheet to track my actual cash flow.These apps also have a huge focus on managing budgets, which has never been for me. My spending is rarely consistent month-to-month, so every month I'm comparing my fully justified spending against my budget, and tweaking my budget until I “pass”.So I built yet another finance tracking app. It has the usual components - accounts, transactions, categories - but the core is a cash flow projection engine, and everything else is built around it.Budgets are gone. Instead, each income/spending category is projected forward from your historical activity, but not as a flat monthly number. They land in whatever account you historically use (e.g. checking account for paychecks/rent/bills, credit/debit cards for daily spending). Credit card payments are modeled automatically based on your projected credit card balance. You can set up your own recurring transfers between accounts as well, to model savings, for example.The end result is that the app can forecast how your cash moves, and you can see in advance when any account might run low. If all of your accounts look good for the next 12 months, maybe you don't have a budgeting problem.What’s made the biggest difference for me has been the MCP integration, which I have connected to Claude (but can be connected to any AI agent of your choice). I have asked it to import historical transactions by uploading PDF account statements, categorize/tag all transactions that took place
