For people who quit expense apps that felt hard to use. Type the amount, pick a category, tap Save, and reports build themselves. Nothing is left out: accounts, budgets, savings goals, bills with installments, debts and money owed to you, net worth, PDF and Excel export. Works 100% offline with no ads and no bank login. Free forever with unlimited transactions. Upgrades are paid once, never a subscription, and add cloud backup and real-time sync on up to 5 devices. 17 languages, 138 currencies.
Hi Product Hunt! I'm Indra, an indie developer from Makassar, Indonesia. Catatku means "my notes" in Indonesian.
I've been writing code since 2016. At 34, after I was laid off, I didn't look for another job. I chose to trust my dream, and Catatku is now the only thing I work on. I built it for myself first, because every money app I tried felt like work.
Some friends in IT called it a stupid idea, the kind of app anyone can make with vibe coding. I kept going. I answer support on WhatsApp and email myself, and for over a year I've turned that feedback into real fixes: 46 iPhone updates so far.
Logging an expense takes a few seconds. Type the amount, pick a category, tap Save. But it's more than a list. It has budgets, savings goals, bills with installments, debts and money people owe you, and reports you can export to PDF or Excel. It works without internet, has no ads, and never asks for your bank login.
A free account has no transaction limit and never expires. If you want more, you pay once, never a subscription. Premium is $9.99 for a year and Pro is $19.99 forever (US prices). With Pro you can keep separate books, like one for home and one for a side business. Pro users can also buy the AI Assistant for WhatsApp or Telegram. Send it a text, a voice note or a receipt photo, and it logs the expense for you.
In a little over a year it has passed 65,000 installs, with a 4.9 rating on both the App Store and Google Play in Indonesia. One reviewer said they had tried every kind of money app and called Catatku "simple, but complete". That's exactly what I'm going for.
In this second year I'm taking Catatku beyond Indonesia. Every country handles money a little differently, so the last few months have been full of new challenges. The app is now in 17 languages and supports 138 currencies. But almost all installs are still from Indonesia, and everywhere else it's very quiet so far. I'm hoping Product Hunt can change that, so I'd love to hear what you think, wherever you are.
If you've ever given up on an expense app, what made you stop? I'm here all day to answer.
