Frequently asked questions
- Can I migrate from YNAB to FinMan?
- There's no automated import from YNAB yet — you re-create your categories in FinMan (takes a few minutes), and going forward you can log expenses manually, via bank import, or straight from Telegram/WhatsApp.
- Does FinMan have a free plan like YNAB?
- Yes — FinMan's free plan covers all core features (transactions, budgets, cars, utility meters, bots) with no time limit. Only the AI-powered extras are paid.
- What does FinMan do that YNAB doesn't?
- FinMan is the only one of the two with a Telegram/WhatsApp bot for logging expenses, AI photo recognition for meter readings and fuel receipts, car cost-per-km tracking, and a landlord-tenant module — see the full list above.
