"Your financial health isn't just about your brokerage accounts—it's about everything you own and owe.”— Scott Blandford
PRINCETON, NJ, UNITED STATES, August 15, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Truthifi, the world's first financial health monitoring app, today announced the launch of Truthifi Integrated Alternative and Private Investment Tracking, enabling users to monitor their complete financial lives by adding private investments and alternative assets that cannot be automatically aggregated. The comprehensive tracking system supports private equity, venture capital, real estate holdings, cryptocurrency, collectibles, precious metals, fine art, and all other alternative investments alongside connected accounts—eliminating the need for separate spreadsheets and creating a unified platform for monitoring total financial health.
Truthifi Integrated Alternative and Private Investment Tracking serves Truthifi's platform, which monitors over $550 million in assets. While traditional account aggregation connects liquid investments at banks and brokerages, most investors hold significant wealth in assets that require manual entry—private company equity, real estate properties, cryptocurrency wallets, collectibles, precious metals, vehicles, and other alternatives. These investments often represent substantial portions of net worth but remain invisible to financial monitoring platforms focused solely on aggregatable accounts. Truthifi's enhanced tracking enables users to see their complete financial picture in one unified platform.
"Your financial health isn't just about your brokerage accounts—it's about everything you own and owe," said Scott Blandford, CEO of Truthifi. "Private equity stakes, real estate investments, cryptocurrency holdings, collectibles—these are real assets that deserve the same monitoring and visibility as your Vanguard account. With Integrated Alternative and Private Investment Tracking, you can finally abandon those spreadsheets and monitor your entire financial life in one place. That complete picture is what genuine financial health monitoring requires."
The platform supports comprehensive tracking across all alternative asset categories. Private equity and venture capital investments can be entered with purchase dates, valuations, ownership percentages, and performance tracking over time. Real estate holdings include residential properties, commercial real estate, rental properties, and land investments with acquisition costs, current valuations, and appreciation tracking. Cryptocurrency portfolios encompass Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other digital assets across wallets and exchanges not supported by traditional aggregation. Collectibles tracking covers fine art, rare wines, classic cars, jewelry, precious metals including gold and silver, instruments, boats, and other valued possessions. Traditional assets requiring manual entry include retirement plans without aggregation support, 529 education savings plans, checking and savings accounts at smaller institutions, certificates of deposit, money market accounts, and cash holdings.
Liability tracking provides the complete net worth picture by enabling entry of mortgages and home equity lines, auto loans and leases, student loan balances, personal loans, credit card debt, and other financial obligations. The comprehensive asset and liability tracking creates a true personal balance sheet that reflects complete financial position rather than just connected investment accounts.
"For the first time, investors can see their genuine net worth—not just their liquid accounts, but everything they own and everything they owe," said Mike Young, Head of Product at Truthifi. "That complete view changes how you think about financial health. You might have significant wealth in real estate or private investments that doesn't show up in traditional tracking. Now you can monitor your entire financial life in one convenient platform instead of maintaining separate spreadsheets for different asset types."
Convenient manual entry streamlines the process of adding alternative investments through intuitive workflows designed for non-technical users. The interface provides clear categories for different asset types, guided entry forms that prompt for relevant information, flexible valuation updates as asset values change, and optional detailed notes and documentation. Users can add assets in minutes rather than wrestling with complex spreadsheet formulas or financial planning software designed for professionals.
Asset categorization mirrors intuitive mental models rather than technical classifications. Real estate appears as distinct properties rather than aggregated values. Private investments can be organized by company, fund, or investment vehicle. Collectibles can be tracked individually with acquisition information and current valuations. The organization reflects how people actually think about their alternative investments rather than forcing them into rigid financial categories.
"We designed alternative asset tracking for how real people actually manage these investments—not for accountants or financial professionals," said Kate Blandford, Head of Design at Truthifi. "You shouldn't need to figure out asset classifications or remember spreadsheet formulas. Just tell us what you own, what you paid, and what it's worth now. The interface guides you through adding any type of investment in a way that makes sense whether you're tracking a rental property or a rare wine collection."
Valuation flexibility accommodates the irregular updating schedules of alternative investments. Unlike liquid securities that update automatically throughout the trading day, private investments and alternative assets typically receive periodic valuations. Users can update values annually, quarterly, or whenever new information becomes available. The platform maintains historical valuations, enabling performance tracking over time even for illiquid investments without daily pricing.
Performance tracking extends to manual assets, enabling calculation of returns on private investments, appreciation of real estate holdings, growth of collectible values, and overall alternative portfolio performance. While these calculations require manual valuation updates, the platform handles the mathematics and presents performance in consistent formats alongside aggregated accounts. Users can evaluate whether alternative investments deliver returns justifying their illiquidity and management complexity.
Integration with connected accounts creates unified wealth visibility. Manual assets and liabilities appear alongside aggregated investment accounts in a single portfolio view, enabling users to understand asset allocation across their complete financial picture. A portfolio might include liquid stocks and bonds through Fidelity and Vanguard, real estate holdings representing significant equity, private company stock from employment, and cryptocurrency investments—all visible together rather than scattered across platforms and spreadsheets. This data flows seamlessly into core Truthifi features including The Map for visual portfolio organization, the Global Statement for comprehensive reporting, and the Explorers for detailed analysis—ensuring alternative investments receive the same sophisticated monitoring as aggregated accounts.
"The technical challenge was building infrastructure that handles both real-time aggregated data and manually-entered assets seamlessly," said Nathan Knight, CTO at Truthifi. "Users shouldn't think about which investments update automatically and which require manual entry—they should just see their complete portfolio. Our architecture processes live data feeds while also supporting flexible manual updates, presenting everything through a unified interface that makes the technical complexity invisible."
Spreadsheet replacement represents a significant convenience improvement for investors currently maintaining separate tracking systems. Traditional approaches require building spreadsheet formulas for performance calculations, manually updating values across multiple sheets, recreating similar calculations for different asset types, and maintaining separate documents for different categories. Truthifi eliminates this manual work by providing purpose-built tracking that handles calculations automatically, maintains historical data effortlessly, and presents all assets through consistent interfaces.
Complete financial health monitoring becomes possible when alternative investments integrate with existing Truthifi capabilities. Manual assets flow seamlessly into The Map for visual portfolio organization across all holdings, appear in the Global Statement for comprehensive performance reporting, and integrate with the Explorers for detailed analysis and drill-down investigation. Performance Benchmarking can compare alternative investment returns against appropriate indices. Document Vault can store related paperwork alongside the investments themselves. This deep integration creates holistic financial monitoring impossible when alternative assets remain in separate spreadsheets isolated from sophisticated analytics.
Asset type flexibility ensures the platform accommodates any investment regardless of traditional categorization. Beyond standard categories, users can create custom asset types for unique investments—partnership interests, intellectual property holdings, business equipment, or any other value store. The "Other Asset" category provides ultimate flexibility for investments that don't fit predefined classifications. This comprehensive approach recognizes that wealth takes many forms and genuine financial monitoring must accommodate all of them.
Privacy and security protections extend to manually-entered assets with the same institutional-grade standards protecting aggregated accounts. Manual asset data receives AES-256 encryption, role-based access controls, and comprehensive audit logging. Users maintain complete control over what information they enter and how much detail they provide. The platform never requires more information than users choose to share, respecting that some alternative investments involve confidential valuations or sensitive ownership details.
The platform's infrastructure currently monitors over $550 million in assets, now including both aggregated accounts and manually-entered alternative investments. This unified monitoring creates a complete view of financial health across all asset types and investment vehicles.
Early users report that seeing complete net worth in one platform transforms their understanding of financial position and allocation. Investors who previously underestimated their true wealth because spreadsheets remained disconnected from investment accounts now see accurate complete pictures. Users tracking diverse investments from traditional portfolios to real estate to collectibles appreciate monitoring everything through consistent interfaces rather than managing multiple tracking systems.
"We're building the platform where your entire financial life lives—not just the accounts we can aggregate automatically, but everything you own and everything you owe," concluded Blandford. "Integrated Alternative and Private Investment Tracking completes that vision by enabling monitoring of private investments, real estate, crypto, collectibles, and all other assets alongside your traditional portfolios. You can finally abandon those spreadsheets and manage your complete financial health in one convenient place. That unified view is what makes genuine financial health monitoring possible."
