Show HN: Ekselio – Loveable for Finance Workflows (local first)

Hi everyone, I am KD - Back in my college days, I dabbled with coding, learned the basics, HTML, CSS etc. but somehow I ended up in Finance which consumed the next 20 years. Then, during covid I picked up coding again, learned react, typescript, etc - even built a rudimentary site - and then came the chatgpt moment, followed by Claude etc. So, as a side project, considering that I had spent 20 years in finance and M&A I started building Ekselio, loveable for finance workflows. Differently from other vibe coding tools, this is local first - meaning the workflows are orchestrated by the LLM based on the file schema but then the execution happens in the browser - the cool thing is that you can see the canvas, the previews of each node, and the code base (SQl) - see the Canvas tab - that said I did include a home tab, which is more of a visual, mainly because people think it's easier to relate to how folks operate, although I know finance and accounting folks usually like the workflow and full transparency - the other thing is that once you create a workflow you can save it and then next month,you can just click Run and it runs it again with no LLM tokes involved - so the infrastructure is minimal. Everything can be exported in an excel data pack with M code in case someone would want to reproduce - think Audit ready. And, I also connected to quickbooks on line so someone can directly pull in and manipulate their financials live - I also connected to Fred which carries literally 800k series in terms of macro economic data - i.e. oil prices, inflation, CPI etc and finally to stocks. I am hoping people find wholes in the architecture or any ideas to make this flow a little bit better. It is in progress so if you run into bugs let me know. Considering that I am using my own API key, I have put a wall in case people overuse it but DM me if you would like to continue using, I can turn off the wall for you - hoping to keep that to a small number of users if I can and will do my best. Thank you again, appreciate you taking the time.
