Thank you for your comment, Josh!

Sure thing. Happy to hear that YNAB works for you!

I want to focus on people starting to get traction with their freelance/business but still need the tools. I saw how easily it is to get lost in finances when you have a few projects at once, so I used design and development to create something that people would actually want to get into every week to update their data.

That's the hope, at least. Thank you for your time checking out the landing page! I appreciate your feedback :)

Hey! Thanks for your comment. This is a valid question. I plan to talk and personally present the app to as many users on the internet as possible. I am in no rush. "Slow is smooth, smooth is fast."

I just finished the app, and to be honest, I didn't know that the "last mile" would drain so much energy from me ;-) I plan to take it slowly for a week or two, but after that I have some ideas. I want to build in public and find some people on Reddit / Indie hackers / Twitter / Internet, who are running a business like me, but don't use any this tool yet.

I can see how this system improved my understanding of the cash flow, and I want to help people minimise stress as much as possible. After discussing the topic with dozens of people, I see that there's a need for such an app, and it was a joy to work on it, but now I get to the hard part – finding out what are the needs of users, checking out if they understand the concept, improving the UX etc.

If you'd like to see how it goes – check me out on Twitter https://twitter.com/piotr_synowiec. I haven't said a word yet about this app, because I am so tired after the launch :D but when I get back from the holidays, next week, I will start writing more about my journey.

And thanks for your good words :)

Thank you dchuk. This is a great idea. I am gathering user feedback and plan to implement some changes within a month or so. Thank you for your valuable feedback!

If you'd like to see the app in action before signing up – please check out my video tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdM_G64xLdA

Maybe that will help :)

Hi gpspake - this is Piotr, the app's creator. I am so happy that you did it!

I made this app to help people who struggle with finding a good solution that works for them. After dozens of discussions with entrepreneurs like me, I discovered that most people don't track their assets or costs and think they'll get by. I don't think this is the best strategy, so I learned development and created the Good Sheet app.

Thank you for your feedback, I am happy that gamification helped you pay off your debt. This was the idea for the design of my app. I feel like updating the data every week takes 5 minutes but gives so much clarity and direction. At least for me. Now I am on the journey to help other people by trying my system. Maybe it will help them just as it did help me.

Thanks!

Hi, this is Piotr - the app's creator. Thanks so much for the suggestion. I will discuss that idea with more beta testers.

Thank you for your comment. I am the app's creator, and English is my second language. This is a work in progress, I hope that more feedback like yours will make this app better in time.

Would "Total assets" work better for you?
