Claude Artifacts might be the most underrated personal finance tool nobody's talking about.

Not because it gives you advice. Because it builds you actual working tools in seconds.

Describe what you want. Get an interactive app. No code. No spreadsheets.
Here's what I mean:
"Build me an emergency fund calculator. I'll input my monthly expenses and current savings. Show me how many months I can survive if I lose my income tomorrow. Add sliders so I can adjust expenses and watch my runway change in real-time."

90 seconds later: a working app with draggable sliders.

Drag rent up — watch your runway shrink. Cut expenses — see it extend.
That single number changes how you think about every financial decision.

The use cases go way deeper than budgeting:

Saving & Safety Nets
→ Emergency fund runway calculator
→ Subscription audit with 5-year opportunity cost
→ Lifestyle inflation detector

Debt & Big Purchases
→ Debt payoff optimizer (avalanche vs. snowball comparison)
→ House affordability reality check
→ Car lease vs. buy calculator
→ Major purchase decision framework

Income & Career
→ Real hourly wage calculator (factoring commute, work costs)
→ Job offer comparison tool (total comp, not just salary)
→ Freelance rate calculator
→ Side income tax estimator

Investing & Retirement
→ Retirement gap finder
→ Investment fee impact calculator
→ Portfolio allocation analyzer

Each one takes under 5 minutes. Describe the inputs, describe the outputs, ask for interactivity.

The pattern:
State what you want to track
List the inputs you'll provide
Describe the output format (charts, tables, scores)
Ask for sliders/toggles to test scenarios

I wrote a deep dive breaking down 50 of these financial Artifacts — exact prompts, what makes them work, and the mistakes that kill your results:
