A Persian money-and-work assistant: log spending in one sentence on the web or Telegram, and track budgets, installments, cheques and debts on the Jalali calendar. The Business edition runs a team's GPS attendance, tasks, leave and payroll in one place.

Our role

Product, design, frontend, backend, Android app and bots

Challenge

Foreign finance tools don't understand the Jalali calendar, cheques, installments or local banks, and nobody wants long forms. Logging a transaction had to be as easy as sending a message, one account had to work across web, Android and bots — and the personal and business products had to connect without sharing a database.

Solution

We built a Persian natural-language parser for logging transactions from a ⌘K command palette and Telegram, added bank-statement import with duplicate detection, and connected two independent NestJS backends with SSO based on single-use Ed25519 tickets. A native Kotlin app talks to the same API.

Features

  • Log spending with one Persian sentence on web, Telegram or by voice
  • Category budgets, installments, cheques, debts and receivables on the Jalali calendar
  • Bank-statement import from Excel with duplicate detection
  • Financial analysis, a financial-health score and an AI assistant
  • Business: geofenced GPS attendance, shifts, leave and payroll
  • One account across web, PWA, Android, Telegram and Bale bots
