Analyze Your Finances Beyond Categories
ExpLens brings your complete banking data into Excel with powerful multidimensional analysis. Track expenses by category, purpose, family member, tax deductions, and any dimension you need.
Why ExpLens?
Multi-dimensional Analysis
Go beyond simple categories. Analyze by purpose, family member, tax deductions, credit card rewards, and unlimited custom dimensions.
Fast, Bidirectional Sync
Download years of transactions in seconds. Categorize in your spreadsheet and sync back to the cloud. Use multiple workbooks sharing the same data.
Rich Banking Metadata
Transactions come pre-categorized with merchant details and credit card points potential - automatically from your banking provider.
100% Private & Secure
ExpLens is fully open source, giving you complete visibility into how it handles your data. All data stays in your spreadsheet, and remains accessible even if you stop using ExpLens. No vendor lock-in.
The ExpLens Solution
ExpLens downloads your complete banking data into Excel, enabling truly flexible analysis across unlimited dimensions.
The Problem with Traditional Finance Software
Most apps only categorize by what you bought, leaving critical questions unanswered: What was the purpose of the purchase? Which family member? Small Business deduction? Categories in other apps lack structure for pivot tables and comprehensive analysis of these dimensions.
Unlimited Categories Made Easy
Categorize by as many independent dimensions as you want - typically only available in professional software. ExpLens makes multi-dimensional analysis simple and accessible for everybody.
Automatic Rich Metadata
Transactions come with automatic pre-categorization, merchant details, and credit card points potential - all provided by your banking provider without manual entry.
Excel Power
Use pivot tables, charts, formulas, and all Excel features you know to create the analysis that matters to you.
