https://video.elfhosted.com/videos/watch/c66a9a86-9e0c-483c-b3fe-2e4a8226559e Firefly III is a personal finance manager for knowing where the money went. Hosted Firefly III is kept private, backed up daily, with email set up. Run Firefly III with ElfHosted: we run it for you, keep it updated, back it up daily and keep it private behind your ElfHosted login. Its email is set up for you, so password resets and notifications just arrive with nothing to configure, and it sits on your ElfHosted dashboard beside your other apps, with a portfolio tracker for your investments if you want one. Firefly III itself is the work of the Firefly III project and its developer. What is Firefly III? A personal finance manager with double-entry bookkeeping underneath: every transaction moves money from one account to another, so the numbers add up. Rules sort and tag new transactions for you, and it covers budgets, bills and more than one currency, so it works as a budget app for the whole household's money. It works in your phone's browser. Amounts in the video are invented, and nothing here is financial advice. Hosted Firefly III is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks you before fixing it. And when you'd rather talk to a person, our team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. Firefly III is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the Firefly III project. You can support its developer through the links below. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.
