Built a Personal Finance App with GPT/Claude in 4 months (still under construction).

Описание: I quit my job and decided that in 2026 I’m going all-in on the digital nomad life.

I had no plan, and one question:

How much will this actually cost… and can I plan it without losing my mind?

I didn’t like any of the tools out there, so I decided to build my own.

For the past 5 months I’ve been using ChatGPT and Claude to teach myself how to code from scratch.. With nothing but vibes, persistence, and a lot of trial and error.

What started as “I just want to see my travel budget on my phone” turned into a full-blown personal finance hub:

I built a dashboard that syncs my bank feeds, categorizes expenses and produces CPA-ready books. A single calendar that stacks home costs, travel costs, car, shopping, and personal spending. A trip planner that compares destinations, handles group RSVPs, and tracks who owes who, and a budget module that shows every commitment in one place.

I’m currently building out income tracking, a trading module, and a full net-worth / balance sheet view.

All of this was built purely with AI and curiosity, just to see if I could do it.

It’s still very much a work in progress, but I wanted to share where I’m at.

This video is a walkthrough of the site as it exists today.

I did all of this myself, by writing code, and pushing to github. With nothing, but the help of AI.

I’ll post another update once it’s more polished — but if you’re thinking about building something for yourself and wondering if AI makes it possible… it absolutely does.
