FAMI-KAN
Smart bill splitting for families and groups
The numbersIs it still shipping, is it overpriced, where did it land — and what the price is built from.
Finance. Launched 1d ago on PeerPush, where it placed #525. Today, it's live, but nothing on the site has changed since we started watching.
Moving right now. The clock only starts when a launch goes quiet.
We check this site every day, ourselves. A founder can post “still working on it” — a claim like that doesn't price. What we price is what we can verify from the outside: evidence, not announcements. The real question isn't “will this be huge?” — it's “will they still be moving in four weeks?”
How the launch is moving on its own board, day by day — the crowd's attention.
A flat line is normal: votes stop within a day or two of launch, on every board. What's unusual — and what actually counts — is a launch that keeps pulling votes long after its day is over.
About
FAMI-KAN is a completely free, browser-based group expense splitter built for real-world scenarios — family trips, Airbnb stays, group dinners, road trips, and roommate living. Zero registration. Zero downloads. Just share a URL and go. --- 🔥 Why we built this Every group outing ends the same way: someone's hunched over a calculator while everyone else enjoys the last hour of the party. We tried Splitwise — but the free tier now limits you to 3 transactions/day, forces 10-second video ads, and charges $40/year for basic features. Every other alternative requires all participants to install an app and create an account before they can even join. For a one-off BBQ or weekend trip, that's too much friction. So we built something different. --- ⚡ How it works 1. One person creates an event (no account needed) 2. Share the URL with everyone in the group 3. Anyone can log expenses directly from their phone browser 4. The app calculates the optimal settlement — the minimum number of transfers to clear all debts 5. Everyone gets one clear payment instruction No app store. No sign-up form. No paywall mid-trip. --- 🎯 Key features • Custom ratio splitting — Set "Adult 1.0, Child 0.5, Infant 0" so families with kids don't overpay. This single feature is why users switch from every other app. • Smart settlement algorithm — Instead of chaotic peer-to-peer transfers, the algorithm minimizes total transactions. 10 people can settle with as few as 4 transfers. • Group fund management — Collected money upfront? Track the pool against actual spending and auto-calculate refunds or shortfalls. • Multi-currency support — USD, EUR, JPY, GBP and more. Perfect for international group trips. • 8 languages — English, Japanese, Spanish, German, French, Portuguese, Hindi, Indonesian. • 300+ SEO blog posts — Covering every group expense scenario imaginable. • 100% free — No premium tier, no ads, no transaction limits. Ever. --- 🛠️ Built with Next.js 15 (App Router) · TypeScript · Supabase (PostgreSQL + RLS) · Vercel · next-intl · AI-assisted development (Vibe Coding) Built solo by a licensed architect from Japan with zero prior coding experience.

The board it did best on sets the price. Every other board only adds to it if the launch also placed high on that board too — because just showing up somewhere isn't an achievement. Listing on twelve directories is free; placing well on them isn't.
