Why "Yala"?
"Yala" comes from "ya la hice" (Spanish for "I got it done") — that feeling of accomplishing something without extra effort.
We built Yala because finance apps existed... but nobody used them. We wanted something that actually works for how we live: fast, visual, no fuss.
We're a small team from Peru building the app we wanted to use ourselves.
Tired of guessing where your money goes?
The lost receipt
You stuff receipts in your pocket and they vanish. End of month, you can't remember what you spent on.
End of month surprise
"Where did my paycheck go?" Small expenses eat up to 20% of your income without you noticing.
The spreadsheet you gave up on
You started motivated, but logging every expense manually is tedious. You quit after 3 days.
It's not lack of willpower. The tools just don't help.
Yala does the heavy lifting.
