So we decided what the hell lets build one ourselves. And then http://mychipper.com was born. It was done for fun. But our main aim was to build a Daily Expense Tracker that was extremely simple to use. In a short span of time we had 100 users, most of whom were coming back regularly. And we realized the simplicity of the application was very appealing to people. Lot of positive feedback came. And we started taking chipper more seriously. Over a period of 2 months we added lots of features. Some of them are summarized below -
- Set reminders – Chipper drops you a reminder mail. Use it to remember your due dates, bill payment dates or just about anything!
- Transactions – See you complete history by date, by week or by month
- Lending / Borrowing – Always forget to remember that 100 Rs you lent to your friend? You can now use chipper to track this. You can use chipper even if you are the one that borrowed that 100 Rs.
- Chipper on mobile – You can access chipper through mobile if you have a GPRS enabled phone.
- Chipper on Orkut – You can use chipper on Orkut too. Just click here to install chipper as an application.
- Talk to buddy – Buddy is a bot whom you can add on gtalk (buddy@mychipper.com). Just add him as a friend, send him the expenses and he’ll take care of the rest. Buddy has lots of easter eggs too, just try chatting with him sometime
