Show HN: Paisa – Open-Source Personal Finance Manager

I've kind of been thinking that there needs to be an open source version of Yodlee/Plaid. I keep picking up some project like Paisa and then realise that I have to figure out how to import things automatically. I don't really have the patience to do it manually.

But for a few months now I've been thinking an OSS service that does this might be great for such OSS projects. Maybe I'll eventually start it.

I think the problem is that you need to establish a business relationship with the giant banking systems to get them to give you access and unless you have contacts or a way into that world this is very hard to do. I don't know how you'd pull it off in an OSS project.
