# About WealthScout

> The business behind wealthscout.app, why the product exists, how it is built and paid for, and the things it deliberately does not do.

## The business

WealthScout.app is published by IP3 Holdings, ABN 88 562 020 114, trading as WealthScout, a business registered in Australia. The ABN resolves on the Australian Business Register, which is the checkable version of everything on this page.

The marketing site is wealthscout.app and the product runs at app.wealthscout.app. The product is written WealthScout.app rather than WealthScout because a separate and unaffiliated product, wealthscout.io, shares the first word. The two are not connected in any way.

The company sells one thing: a subscription to the software. It takes no commission from any product it records, sells no user data, and runs no advertising against household financial information.

## Why the product exists

Most people who take their own finances seriously end up in a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet works until the arithmetic outgrows it. Once money sits with more than one owner, a couple, a family trust, a company or a retirement structure, and once a decision depends on the tax paid while an asset is held and again when the money reaches a person, a set of formulas starts quietly simplifying. Nothing on the screen shows that it has.

WealthScout was built to do that arithmetic properly. It holds what a household owns and owes against the owner that holds it, takes a dated confirmation of the figures once a month, and projects them forward with the tax rules of the country the household is in. The answer to when can we retire is a date with its assumptions written next to it, not a number with no working.

## How it is built

Thirteen countries are modelled with their own tax treatment rather than a currency setting: the tax on returns while an owner holds an asset, and the tax on getting money out of that owner and into a person's hands.

There are no bank or broker connections. A broker file is exported and imported, and every trade is reviewed before it posts. Share prices update automatically during the trading day and crypto prices at least every fifteen minutes, without any such connection.

Where a tax rule does not cover a situation, the projection marks it uncovered rather than inventing a rate. That is a deliberate choice: a figure produced by a guess is indistinguishable, on screen, from one produced by a rule.

## How it is paid for

There are two plans. Free has no time limit and asks for no card. It covers ten share holdings in one market, one property and its mortgage, cash, loans, cards, retirement accounts and net worth history.

Plus lifts those limits and adds the full projection module, multiple owners including trusts and companies, and every property with its rent and costs. One subscription covers everyone invited to a household rather than one seat per person. The current price is on the pricing page.

Subscriptions are the only revenue. That is stated here because it is the question worth asking of anything holding a complete picture of a household's money.

## What it does not do

These are settled choices rather than gaps waiting to be filled, and anyone who needs one of them is better served elsewhere.

- It does not connect to banks or brokers, import transaction feeds, or categorise individual spending.
- It does not prepare or lodge tax returns, and it produces no jurisdiction tax reports.
- It does not give financial, investment, tax or legal advice. It calculates figures and recommends nothing.
- It does not publish user numbers, ratings or testimonials, because it has none to publish. Any you find elsewhere are not ours.
- It uses no AI model of its own and sends household figures nowhere.
