About Uplift

One studio, no subscriptions, no shortcuts.

Uplift is an independent software studio. It builds small, focused apps for people who would rather own their tools than rent them, with no investors to answer to and no growth targets to hit. Just software made to last, by someone who uses it too.

Uplift's first app

Personal finance, self-hosted.

Tally is a personal finance tracker you run yourself. Track spending and accounts on infrastructure you control. No third party ever sees your data.

The story

I was tired of paying $100+ a year just to see where I stood financially. And I didn't want to spend the last night of every month hunched over a spreadsheet, tallying up where my money went and which budgets I'd blown. That's where Tally came from: automate the tallying, and actually get somewhere with my financial goals.

How Uplift builds

1
Built by one person

No investors, no roadmap decided by committee. Just software made to work well.

2
No subscriptions

Pay once, or not at all. Uplift apps are built to be run, not rented.

3
You own your data

Every Uplift app runs on infrastructure you control. Nothing leaves your server unless you decide it does.

What's next

Tally is the first, not the last.

More independent apps are on the way, each built the same way: self-hosted, subscription-free, and made to actually get used.
