Famvelope, a budget that trusts the paperwork

A self-hosted family envelope-budgeting app that reconciles card-statement PDFs with a live bank feed.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-25 issue.

Field notes

The budgeting model combines envelope carryover with a statement-first ledger: a monthly PDF replaces its slice of activity, while a live feed covers the interval since the previous statement. The page names Amex, Chase, and Apple Card PDFs, describes six-month premium matching, and gives a FastAPI/Postgres deployment path using Docker Compose. It also separates owner and member roles and keeps the last synced data available offline.
