GlidePath Money

Planning, not tracking

Plan the next 30 years, not just last month.

For people who bounced off budget apps but still need real answers — can I retire, does a Roth conversion make sense, and which debt cliff is coming next? GlidePath shows the math in plain English, from a financial file that stays local by default.

Actual product screens

Inspect the app before we ask you to buy it.

These are real screenshots from the current app using a fictional demo household. The point is to show the working surface — not a mockup, not a stock dashboard, and not a promise about your results.

Demo names, account numbers, and dollar amounts are fictionalized. Screenshots are product proof, not financial advice or forecast guarantees.

The decisions GlidePath is built for

Three questions that can change the next decade.

Budget apps tell you what already happened. GlidePath focuses on the money decisions still in front of you — each with the formula and assumptions in plain sight, built to show its work, not hide it.

Will my money last?

Monte Carlo retirement projections, Social Security timing, spending assumptions, and survivor-year stress tests — in one view, not five tabs.

Demo 92% chance the money lasts to age 92

success = funded paths ÷ total simulations

Does a Roth conversion make sense?

Find the low-tax years before RMDs, watch the Social Security tax torpedo, and see which single assumption moves the answer.

headroom = bracket top − taxable income

Which debt cliff should I kill?

Track 0% promo deadlines, payoff pace, and the post-promo APR — and whether your monthly budget actually clears it before the rate snaps back.

Local-first, stated carefully

Your financial file stays on your computer.

GlidePath is for people who don’t want another cloud vault for their household finances. Your core financial file stays on your computer by default. The handful of optional cloud features each show exactly what they send before you turn them on — and you can leave them all off.

Default core app

Stays on your computer

  • Accounts & balances
  • Transactions & categories
  • Retirement & tax projections
  • Plain files you can open in Excel
Leaves your PC · only what each feature shows you

Limited cloud touchpoints

  • Required: license activation & update checks — a license key and device info, never financial data
  • Opt-in: AI questions, plus a transaction’s merchant, amount & date if you use AI categorization
  • Opt-in: forwarded email-inbox content, if you set it up
  • Opt-in: phone access to your own PC

And everything a money app should do

The planning is the wedge. The day-to-day works too.

Subscription & trial alarms

Catches the “$0 now, $99 later” trial before it bills — we warn you 30 days out. See it →

Credit Health

The five score factors mapped to your own cards — utilization, due dates, history. No credit pull. See it →

Cash flow & spending

Ledger, categorization, a spending donut, and gap analysis — imported from most bank or aggregator CSVs. How import works →

Equity & RSUs

Track vesting schedules, the tax withheld at each vest, and how your RSUs and options fold into net worth and retirement. See it →

Self-employed tools

Invoices, a year-round Schedule C, mileage, home office, and a year-end accountant pack. See the business tools →

Browser extension

Grabs your bank’s CSV on Export (Chase, Amex, Citi, BoA) — login stays in the browser, import goes to your local app. See it →

Glide, the explainer

Ask “what’s a Roth conversion?” and get a plain-English answer. It sees what you type into the chat, not an automatic feed of your accounts. How it’s private →

Built for the person who bounced off every other money app.

Power means nothing if you bounce on day one. So a lot of the engineering goes into the quiet half:

  • Explain Mode is on by default. Your retirement, tax, and balance-transfer projections come with their plain-English context — the assumptions, the formula, the caveats — already visible. Toggle it off for the dense view.
  • Every empty state has a job. Open a page before you’ve added data and you get a “here’s why you’d use this, and how to start” panel — not a wall of $0.00 cards.
  • No jargon walls. Industry words get plain-English replacements; where a real term has to appear (Roth, Tax Valley, Monte Carlo) it’s defined inline with an example the first time it shows up.

Built by Jeff — 22 years inside a banking firm, 35 years a frustrated user of every money app there is. Backed by QuickTech LLC, an independent Illinois software company since 2019.

Why I built this →

Simple ownership

Buy once. Keep the app.

$129 one-time for Personal, $199 for Personal + Business — first year of updates included. Optional $39/yr after that keeps tax rules, bank parsers, and new features current; stop any time and the app you bought keeps working.

Before you buy

Quick answers.

Do I have to connect my bank?

No. GlidePath runs on local files and manual or imported data — drag-and-drop CSV import, or the optional browser extension for one-click captures. No bank login required.

Does my data leave my computer?

Your financial file stays local by default. A few things send limited data: license activation and update checks (required — just a license key and device info, no financial data), plus the optional AI categorization, email-inbox, and phone-access features, which send only limited transaction details and each show exactly what they send before you use them. Leave them off and nothing leaves.

What happens if I stop the optional maintenance?

The app you bought keeps working. Maintenance just keeps you current on tax rules, bank parsers, security patches, and new features.

Is this financial advice?

No — it’s an educational planning tool. It shows you assumptions and tradeoffs in plain English, but it isn’t personalized tax, investment, or legal advice.

Real talk

Where you’ve been matters less than where you’re going.

Nobody’s finances feel “on track” all the time. GlidePath skips the judgment — just the dollars behind your choices and the next decision, front and center. We’ll help you get there.
