Cointry's answer

Cointry turns expense tracking into a single chat message. It lives entirely inside Telegram — no separate app to install, no account to create, no spreadsheets to maintain. You just type what you spent (20 taxi or +400 salary) and Cointry does the rest: AI picks the category, converts foreign currencies into your main one, and rolls everything into statistics and monthly reports. You can even log expenses by voice. Because it works in any Telegram chat, shared budgeting with family or a team is built in — add the bot to a group and everyone tracks together in real time, with no per-user limits.

Cointry's answer

• Zero friction: tracking happens where you already chat. Most budgeting apps lose users because logging is tedious; Cointry is one short message.
• Nothing to install or set up: your Telegram account is the whole onboarding.
• AI categorization, voice input and any-currency support with automatic conversion.
• Truly free for the core use case, including shared/group budgeting with unlimited records, categories, and users — many competitors charge for multi-user or basic features.
• Built-in collaboration: family or team budgeting works out of the box in a group chat, and one premium subscription covers everyone in that chat.
• AI spending analysis & monthly reports that explain what drove your spending and how to cut costs.

Cointry's answer

Everyday Telegram users who want to understand where their money goes without the effort of a dedicated finance app — individuals tracking personal spending, and especially couples, families, and roommates managing a shared budget together. A secondary audience is freelancers and small teams (the Business tier) who need shared expense tracking and consolidated analytics across multiple chats. The audience skews toward people in regions where Telegram is a primary messenger and who deal with multiple currencies (travelers, expats, remote workers).

Cointry's answer

Cointry grew out of its creator's own frustration after trying a huge number of expense-tracking apps. Each one made logging a purchase a chore: tap to open the app, type the amount into one field, pick a currency in another, choose a category from a list, hit save. All those forms, fields, and buttons turned a five-second action into a dozen taps — and, like most people, he eventually stopped logging altogether.

The key realization was counterintuitive: it's actually far faster to enter an expense as plain text than by tapping through buttons and fields. Typing 20 taxi or +400 salary in one line beats navigating any form. And the natural home for typing a quick line of text is the messenger you already have open all day — Telegram. So Cointry was built as a Telegram bot that parses that single message and does the rest: AI picks the category, converts currencies, and rolls everything into statistics and monthly reports. From there it grew to cover what real budgets need — voice entry, multi-currency support, shared group budgets for families and teams, and AI-powered monthly reports — all without ever leaving the chat.
