Cointry
Send a short message like "20 taxi" or "+400 salary" and Cointry logs it, auto-picks a category, converts currencies if needed, and rolls it into reports — solo or shared with a household chat. Free for personal and shared tracking.
Key features
- Free-form text logging ("20 taxi", "+400 salary")
- Automatic categorization and currency conversion
- Shared tracking in a group chat with combined reports
Cointry
Cointry is built around the idea that expense tracking should take the same effort as sending a text message. You write something like "20 taxi" or "+400 salary" — no fixed syntax, no dropdown menus — and the bot parses the amount, guesses a category, and logs it, converting currencies automatically when your entry does not match your default one.
What sets it apart from a purely personal tracker is that it works the same way in a group chat, so a couple or a household can log shared spending in one place and see combined reports, with unlimited records, categories and users included at no cost. That makes it a genuine alternative to a dedicated shared-budget app for people who already live in Telegram and do not want another login.
Because everything happens through free-form messages, the trade-off is that categorization accuracy depends on how consistently you phrase entries — vague or unusual wording may need a manual correction. For anyone who has abandoned spreadsheet-based budgeting because it felt like a chore, the low-friction "just type it" model is the main draw here.
