$247,580.00

The figure above was computed entirely on the device it lives on — no request left the phone, no record was written to any server. This is the point.

i.Three tabs · One ledger

Everything Mint wanted to be, without the cloud.

Budget. Invest. Net worth. Three tabs, one clear view of your financial life — computed entirely on-device, in real time.

01.Budget · The Household Ledger

Spending, without surveillance.

A budget that lives on your device — so the only person reviewing your habits is you. Vault reads your statements locally, categorizes them locally, and pacing forecasts refresh the moment a transaction is logged.

  • Up to 10 categories free.  Unlimited on Pro. Rename, reorder, archive — your taxonomy, not ours.
  • CSV import  tuned for ANZ, CBA, NAB, Westpac, and ING. Drop in a statement; nothing is sent upstream.
  • Pacing and forecasts  recalculated on-device. Know you’re $3.32 under per day before the month ends.

  • Live quotes, anonymously.  Yahoo Finance and CoinGecko. No account binding, no identifier in the request.

03.Net Worth · The Standing Figure

The number you actually care about.

A single, confident figure that ties every account, holding, and liability together — updated silently as your day goes on. The headline number you want; the detail you need; none of the noise you don’t.

  • One hero number.  Everything you own, minus everything you owe, refreshed locally in real time.
  • Composition at a glance.  Cash, invested, property — a single bar tells you who you are financially this quarter.
  • Your history, yours only.  Month-over-month trend, stored on-device. No analytics pipeline anywhere.

ii.A note on privacy

Private by architecture. Not by policy.

We didn’t add privacy as a policy. We removed the parts that make privacy negotiable. There are no user accounts, no servers, and no analytics pipeline. Your financial life is encrypted on your device with AES-256 and never leaves it — not for sync, not for backup, not for “improving the product.”

What you log, Vault computes. What Vault computes, stays. Delete the app and your ledger is gone. That isn’t a footnote — it’s the architecture.

— Written on-device. Sealed locally. Signed for you, only.The Vault Team · Melbourne · Est. 2024
¶ 01

No account required.

Nothing to sign up for. Nothing to leak. Install and start — your ledger begins the moment you open the app.

¶ 02

No servers. At all.

We literally cannot see your data, because there is nowhere for it to go. The only network calls are anonymous quote and FX lookups.

¶ 03

Deletion is final.

Remove the app and your financial history is gone — the way deletion should work. Export first if you want a copy.

iv.Frequently asked · before installing

Answers, in plain English.

The things people ask before they install a finance app — and our honest answers.

No. Not to us, not to a backup service, not to an analytics provider. Every transaction, holding, and balance is stored on your device and encrypted with AES-256. We don't operate servers that could receive it.
Yes — almost entirely. The app is fully functional without a connection. The only time it reaches out is to fetch live market prices and exchange rates, and those requests carry no account or identifier.
Budgets across categories, transactions, investment holdings, cash accounts, property, superannuation, and liabilities — and the net worth figure they all roll up to. One app for the three questions you actually ask about your money.
Stocks, ETFs, managed funds, bonds, and cryptocurrencies across major markets. Ten currencies including AUD, USD, CNY, EUR, GBP, JPY, NZD, HKD, SGD, and CAD — with RBA-sourced exchange rates.
Yes. CSV import is tuned for ANZ, CBA, NAB, Westpac, and ING out of the box. Drop in a statement and your transactions are categorized locally — nothing is sent upstream.
