## Description

Budget Exporter

Turn supported bank statement pages into a clean, <strong>YNAB-ready CSV</strong> — or send the transactions directly to your YNAB budget — in a few clicks. Every step is reviewable, and all processing happens <strong>locally in your browser</strong>.

How it works
<ol><li>Open a supported bank statement page.</li><li>Click the toolbar icon to open the review sidebar.</li><li>Inspect each transaction in a compact grid: edit date, payee, category, memo, amount, or split it into multiple entries.</li><li>Apply or create payee-normalization rules from deterministic, local-only suggestions.</li><li>Export a YNAB-ready CSV, <strong>or</strong> push selected transactions straight to YNAB via the built-in OAuth integration.</li></ol>
Highlights
<ul><li><strong>Review-first workflow</strong> — nothing leaves your browser until you approve it.</li><li><strong>YNAB OAuth integration</strong> — connect once, map your accounts, and send reviewed transactions directly to YNAB. Sent items are flagged so they cannot be re-sent by accident.</li><li><strong>Deterministic, local rule engine</strong> — payee cleanup and category suggestions are based on your own rules and history. No AI model, no remote inference.</li><li><strong>CSV export</strong> still works fully without a YNAB account.</li><li><strong>Manifest V3</strong>, modern Firefox sidebar.</li></ul>
Supported accounts
<ul><li>Desjardins — bank account</li><li>Desjardins — credit card</li><li>KOHO — prepaid card</li></ul>
Privacy

Budget Exporter does <strong>not</strong> use analytics, telemetry, or third-party tracking. Bank pages are read on-device only. The extension contacts the network in exactly one situation: when <em>you</em> click <strong>Connect</strong> or <strong>Send to YNAB</strong>, in which case it talks to <code><a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/c28ff43dfe90203b6d8184ac37f9674f0255a0a189c67716f735e1c9a647afeb/https%3A//api.ynab.com" rel="nofollow">https://api.ynab.com</a></code> using the token issued by YNAB's OAuth flow. That is the only remote endpoint the extension ever calls.
