Mint alternative
The AI Mint Alternative for Life After Mint
When Intuit shut down Mint in 2024, millions of people lost the free app they used to track spending and stick to a budget. Auritrack is a modern Mint alternative built for exactly those users. Instead of making you categorize every transaction by hand, the AI does the bookkeeping: chat your expenses in plain language, upload a bank statement, and let Auritrack track, sort and budget for you. It starts on a free tier and does not sell your data to advertisers.

What ex-Mint users actually need in a replacement
Mint earned its following by being free, simple, and good at the basics: automatic syncing, budgets and clean categories. When you look for apps like Mint, you are really looking for those strengths without the catch that came with Mint’s free model — it was funded by ads and product recommendations built on your data. Auritrack keeps the free-to-start, budget-first experience and pairs it with an AI expense tracker that does the tedious work for you, while keeping your data out of an advertising business entirely.

The honest difference: import instead of sync
We will not pretend otherwise: Mint connected straight to your bank and pulled transactions automatically, and Auritrack does not offer live bank sync yet — it is on our roadmap. Today you bring transactions in by uploading a bank statement, and the AI reads, cleans and categorizes everything for you. For a lot of people this is a feature, not a compromise: your banking credentials never touch our servers, so there is no third-party connection holding your login. You stay in control of exactly what you share, and you can export your data back out as PDF or CSV whenever you want.
More than a like-for-like Mint swap
Auritrack is not just a Mint clone. It is built for individuals and small businesses, works in 50+ countries, and turns tracking into a conversation. Pair it with the budgeting app to plan your month, and lean on AI bookkeeping to keep clean records for tax time. Whatever you choose, you should not have to hand over your data just to track your money — and with Auritrack the app starts free, with plans from $3/month or pay-as-you-go Auricoins only when you want the AI features.

The honest verdict
Mint is gone, so the real question is what replaces it. If the single thing you miss most is hands-off automatic bank sync, know that Auritrack does not have that yet. If what you miss is a free-to-start, budget-first tracker that is simple, private and does the sorting for you, Auritrack is built to be exactly that — and it works in your currency, wherever you are.
