Personal Finance + Google Sheets

Ask Your Spreadsheet Questions

Connect your Google Sheets budget tracker — the one you already use — and Aether becomes its brain. "How much did I spend on dining out last quarter?" "What's my average monthly savings rate?" "Am I on track for my vacation fund?" Ask in plain English. Get answers with charts, not formulas.

Aether reads your sheet's structure, understands your categories, and adapts to however you've organized things. Messy columns? Inconsistent labels? It figures it out. You don't restructure your life to fit a tool — the tool adapts to your life.

Insights You'd Never Build Formulas For

Anomaly detection. Aether spots things spreadsheets can't: duplicate charges, unusual spikes, subscriptions that increased without warning, and recurring fees you didn't realize were recurring. It flags them without you writing a single VLOOKUP.

Trend analysis. "Your grocery spending is up 18% quarter-over-quarter." "Your savings rate has been declining since July." "At your current pace, your emergency fund reaches 6 months by March." Aether reads the trajectory, not just the snapshot.

Cash flow forecasting. Based on your recurring income, fixed expenses, and spending patterns, Aether projects your end-of-month balance, your quarterly runway, and whether that vacation budget is realistic. It updates the forecast as new transactions appear.

Tax categorization. Freelancer? Self-employed? Aether learns which expenses are deductible, categorizes them automatically, and maintains a running tax-ready summary. When your accountant asks for a breakdown, it's already organized.

Two-Way Integration

Aether doesn't just read your spreadsheet — it writes back. Ask it to categorize uncategorized transactions, add a summary row, create a monthly rollup tab, or insert a chart. It manipulates the actual Google Sheet using the Sheets API, so your data stays in the format and location you're already comfortable with.

"Add a pivot table for Q4 spending by category." Aether creates it in your sheet, not in a separate app. Your spreadsheet becomes smarter without you learning a new tool or migrating your data anywhere.

Built For

People who already track finances in Google Sheets and want intelligence without switching tools. Freelancers who need expense categorization and tax prep from their existing transaction log. Couples sharing a budget spreadsheet who want insights without manually building charts. Anyone who's great at logging expenses but never gets around to analyzing them. People who want the power of financial software without trusting a third-party app with their bank data.
