What Ghostfolio is

Ghostfolio is an open-source dashboard for personal finances with an emphasis on privacy and data ownership. It tracks stocks, ETFs, cryptocurrencies, bonds, dividends, valuables, emergency funds, and liabilities across multiple platforms. Users can review performance and allocation by account, asset class, currency, region, and sector. Ghostfolio X-ray provides static portfolio analysis for identifying potential risks, while investment activities can be imported and exported. Other listed features include watchlists, an in-app Fear & Greed Index, a dark theme, and Zen Mode. Ghostfolio runs on the web and Android, and can be self-hosted on users’ own hardware through platforms such as Umbrel and Unraid. Signup on the free plan requires no email address or credit card, and the maker says the service can be used anonymously. The Free plan costs nothing. The project began in 2021.
