Mint.com is a website made to help you manage your personal finances at no charge. It's similar in some ways to the well-known Quicken financial planning software. It uses a very visual and colorful design to show you data about how you spend your money. For example, it tells you how much you spend each month on food, and it tells you your net worth based on how much debt and assets you have.

It does this by aggregating your bank and credit card account info, among other things. It uses a platform originally created by a website called Yodlee to connect to your bank's web services and gather information each night on how much money you spent. From there, it recognizes certain stores and where you might have written a check or used your checking card, and figures out where you're spending your money. You can view that info in a graph.

Mint.com also tracks your investments; in fact, it's expected that the site's primary source of revenue will be through deals referring its users to investment groups and other financial services.

On September 14th, 2009, Quicken developer Intuit announced that it will purchase Mint.com for $170 million, but that Mint.com will nevertheless remain distinct from Quicken Online, which provides some similar services.
