Getting Started

Sign up for the cloud version or set up your own instance in minutes.

Cloud Version

The fastest way to start is the managed cloud version:

  1. Go to app.expense-budget-tracker.com
  2. Sign up with your email (passwordless OTP)
  3. Start tracking expenses in the web app
  4. For an MCP-capable client, add https://mcp.expense-budget-tracker.com/mcp and authorize access in your browser
  5. For a terminal agent or direct HTTP client, start from GET https://api.expense-budget-tracker.com/v1/

No installation, no server setup. Your data is isolated via workspace-level row-level security in Postgres.

Agent and program access

The same hosted account works for:

  • the web UI at https://app.expense-budget-tracker.com
  • the hosted MCP connector at https://mcp.expense-budget-tracker.com/mcp, authorized through browser OAuth
  • Agent API setup at GET https://api.expense-budget-tracker.com/v1/, followed by direct HTTP requests using Authorization: ApiKey <key>

Self-Hosted

If you prefer to run your own instance, see the Self-Hosting Guide.

Demo Mode

The app includes a built-in demo mode. Toggle the All/Demo button in the header to explore the interface with sample data — no database needed.
