AI Intelligence That Complements Your YNAB Plan
Common challenges YNAB users face that FinInsights helps solve
Adapting to Life Changes
When life changes—new car, new home, growing family—your financial targets need to adapt. Manually recalculating every affected category can be time-consuming.
FinInsights adds: AI-powered recommendations that detect life changes and suggest target adjustments across your YNAB plan.
Choosing the Right Targets
YNAB's flexible target system gives you powerful options. Deciding which target type fits each category—and what amount to set—can take analysis of your spending history.
FinInsights adds: AI analyzes your patterns and recommends optimal target amounts based on your actual spending.
Managing Variable Expenses
Bills like electricity, gas, and groceries fluctuate month to month. Setting a single target requires you to analyze seasonal patterns and calculate appropriate averages.
FinInsights adds: Automatic rolling averages with seasonal adjustment to help you set accurate targets.
Planning for Future Expenses
YNAB excels at managing money you have today. Some users want additional visibility into upcoming expenses and cash flow projections based on their historical patterns.
FinInsights adds: Predictive expense forecasting that works alongside your YNAB plan to help you see what's ahead.
