## Ghostfolio

**Open-source, privacy-first tracker you can self-host or use via a paid cloud plan.**

**Best for:** Technically-inclined investors who value open source and are willing to self-host, or who want to support the project via the paid cloud tier.

Strengths:
- Fully open source and self-hostable at no cost
- Strong privacy stance — your data stays on your infrastructure if self-hosted
- Clean, no-nonsense dashboard

Trade-offs:
- Self-hosting requires technical setup and maintenance
- Hosted convenience requires a paid subscription
- Lighter on AI-driven analysis

## Portfolio Performance

**Free, open-source desktop tracker with true time-weighted and internal-rate-of-return performance, stored entirely on your own machine.**

**Best for:** Meticulous investors who want defensible return figures and full local control, and who do not mind that the tool is a desktop application rather than a web app.

Strengths:
- Both true time-weighted and internal-rate-of-return figures, with a documented methodology
- Entirely free and open source, with no paid tier on the desktop product
- Works fully offline — no account, no linking, nothing leaves your machine
- Unusually flexible custom taxonomies, including splitting one ETF across regions or sectors

Trade-offs:
- Desktop-only for data entry; the mobile companion app is read-only
- No AI analysis of any kind
- No dividend forecast, tax reports or goal projection
- The interface is dense and rewards patience rather than a first-time visitor
