See where your money really went.

Each ledger comes with an Analyze screen. It shows how money moved over the month, which categories took the most, and how you paid. If one day looks odd, open the calendar and look at just that day.

You can be up and running in about a minute.

There is no setup to get through. Open it, give your first ledger a name, and start writing things down.

1

Open TallyKnot Local

We do not ask for an email or a password. Add your name if you like, or skip that and go straight in.

2

Create a ledger

Give it a name, an icon and a currency. Make a separate one for each thing you want to keep track of.

3

Add cash in and cash out

Write down each amount with as much or as little detail as you want. You can change or remove it later.

4

Analyze and browse by day

The charts show where the money went. The calendar lets you look at one day at a time.

This is the real cashbook, not a trial.

You get the same ledger, entry and analyze screens people use in TallyKnot online. We only left out the parts that cannot work without an account.

As many ledgers as you want

Keep one for home, one for a trip and one for the shop. Each ledger has its own name, icon, colours and currency.

Cash in & cash out

Adding an entry takes a few seconds. Made a mistake? Edit it or delete it, and the totals fix themselves.

Categories & details

Add a category, how it was paid, who it was with, a reference number or a short note. Use only the ones you care about.

Search & filters

Looking for one payment from weeks ago? Search by name, note or reference, or narrow the list by type, category and dates.

Analyze with charts

A cash flow chart and breakdowns by category and payment method. Look at this month, last month, everything, or dates you pick.

Calendar view

Days where money moved get a green or red dot. Tap any day to see what came in and what went out.

Start here. Move online if you outgrow it.

Neither one costs anything. Local is the quickest way to begin. An account is worth it once you want your phone, other people, or a backup you do not have to think about.

The quickest way to begin. Good for trying TallyKnot, or for a private cashbook you only need on one device.

Things people usually ask us.

Where is my data saved?

In this browser, on this device. We use the browser's own storage, and nothing you type into TallyKnot Local is sent to our servers.

Will my ledgers expire or disappear?

They do not expire. They stay until this browser's site data is cleared. Please know that clearing your browser data, or using a private window, removes them, and we have no copy to give back. If losing these records would hurt, a free TallyKnot account keeps them safe online.

Can I see my local ledgers on another device?

No. A local ledger only exists in the browser where you made it. If you want the same cashbook on your phone and on other computers, that is what the free account is for.

If I log in later, do my local ledgers move into my account?

No, not on their own. An account starts with its own ledgers. Your local ones stay here in this browser, and you can keep using them as before.

What can't Local do?

The things that need an account: inviting members, notifications, Excel and PDF downloads, and syncing with the Android app. The rest works, Analyze and the calendar included.

Is it really free?

Yes. TallyKnot Local, the web dashboard and the Android app are all free.

Ready when you are

Your first entry is a minute away.

Open TallyKnot Local, name a ledger and write down the last thing you paid for. You do not need an account, and it costs nothing.
