lot.

What Daybook provides you.
01
What your portfolio really returned
Worked out money-weighted, from what you deposited and when. Then
the same deposits go through an index fund, so “should I have
just bought the index” gets a straight answer.
02
The costs nobody shows you
Every fee it can find, including the ones taken out before the money
ever reached your balance. Your own trades sit beside the ones you
copied, so you can see which of you did better.
03
Your own tax report
Daybook asks where you file before it works anything out. If your
country is not covered it says so and stops. A tax report is a dated
PDF of working papers plus CSVs. It is not a tax return.
Australia Parcel-by-parcel CGT, the 12-month discount, franking credits, AMIT adjustments.New Zealand FIF income - the lower of fair dividend rate and comparative value.United Kingdom Section 104 pooling, same-day and 30-day matching.United States FIFO lots, short against long term, wash sales both directions.Canada Averaged cost base, the one-half inclusion, superficial losses.
Statements it accepts
- eToro account statement (.xlsx), read end to end
- CommSec exports, recognised by their column layout
- Interactive Brokers exports, recognised by their column layout
- Charles Schwab exports, recognised by their column layout
- Robinhood exports, recognised by their column layout
- Trading 212 exports, recognised by their column layout
- Freetrade exports, recognised by their column layout
- Anything else in Excel or CSV (.xlsx, .xls, .csv, .tsv). Daybook reads the file's headers, works out which column is which, and shows you before it imports anything
- Share splits and fund tax statements are typed in yourself, because no export carries them
- PDF statements are the one thing it cannot read. Every broker also offers a spreadsheet export; use that one
What it will not do
- Forecast, score you, or tell you to buy or sell. A test fails the
build if that ever changes.
- Give financial or tax advice.
- Phone home. Nothing gets tracked and your statement never leaves
your machine. Even paid runs without signing up for anything; a licence
key is all there is.

published in August 2026. What they have that Daybook does not:
automatic broker syncing and mobile apps, which need their servers.
