Avery vs Quicken Simplifi

The Quicken Simplifi alternative that lives in your own Google Sheet

Quicken Simplifi is a tidy budgeting app — but it’s subscription-only, connects US and Canadian banks, and its CSV export is limited to one month at a time. Avery syncs your transactions straight into a Google Sheet you own and keep, with AI categorization.
