Bankless Budget turns the purchase alerts your bank already emails you into a categorized budget. You route them to a Gmail label, it reads only that label, and Google's Gemini pulls out each purchase. No bank login or account linking. Free plan available.

Hi Product Hunt!
I built Bankless Budget because I wanted my budget to track itself without handing my bank login to an app.
It works from the purchase alerts your bank emails you. You turn those alerts on, a Gmail filter puts them in one label, and Bankless Budget reads only that label. Google's Gemini pulls out the store, amount, date and card, and suggests a category you can correct. You get a spending dashboard, a monthly budget and your transactions, with no bank connection at all.
To be upfront about the Gmail permission: Google can't grant access to a single label, so the permission is read-only access to your whole Gmail. Bankless Budget only ever fetches the label you choose. It has been through an independent security assessment, and the Privacy Policy states that limit in writing.
On the free plan, you press Import to bring in new purchases, up to 100 a month. The Plus plan ($7.99/month or $79/year) brings them in automatically as soon as each alert arrives, emails you when you go over budget, finds your recurring charges, and lets you share your budget with up to three people.
It's US-only and Gmail-only for now. I'd love feedback on the setup, and on which banks I should write guides for next.
