FinvestLens

Double-entry accounting
that belongs on a Mac.

FinvestLens brings the rigour of GnuCash's accounting engine to a native Apple app — your accounts, investments and small business in one file you own, on macOS, iPad and iPhone.

macOS 26 or later · Apple silicon and Intel · Free software, GPL v3

The FinvestLens dashboard: net worth trend, wellbeing score, portfolio allocation, performance and recent activity.

Real double-entry, not a spreadsheet

Every transaction moves money between accounts and must balance. That is what makes the reports add up — and what lets FinvestLens agree with GnuCash to the cent on a 46,000-transaction book.

Your book is a file you own

One SQLite document on your disk, iCloud Drive or a NAS. No account to create, no server to trust, nothing uploaded. Open it, edit it, back it up like any other file.

Never locked in

Import from GnuCash and export back, losslessly. Read and write plain-text Ledger journals. Query the whole book from the command line. Your data leaves as easily as it arrived.

Everyday

Import a statement, and it lands where it should

CSV, QIF, OFX/QFX, SWIFT MT940 and ISO 20022 CAMT.053 — the format is detected from the file. Duplicates are caught, transfers between your own accounts are completed rather than doubled, and payees you have categorised before are categorised again the same way.

Reporting

Statements at annual-report standard

Balance sheet, income statement, trial balance and cash flow, built from your own chart of accounts with comparatives and accounting typography. Plus two presentation decks — a CFO-style Financial Review and a factsheet Investment Review — that write their own commentary on your Mac.

On device

Apple Intelligence reads your paperwork

Point Smart Import at a PDF bank statement, dividend notice or invoice. It is read on your Mac, matched to transactions already in your book, linked and categorised — and nothing is sent anywhere.

Your finances stay on your Mac

There is no FinvestLens account, no analytics and no server. Documents are read on device by Apple Intelligence. Price quotes are the only network requests the app makes, and you choose whether to make them.
