Show HN: A Stripe widget that tells you how much you can safely pay yourself (github.com)
5 points by sachou 14 days ago
I built this simple Chrome extension to always see how much I can pay myself based on my Stripe income. So now when I open my Stripe dashboard, I always see how much I can pay myself.

How it works is pretty simple.

You create a read-only Stripe API key (this key stays on your laptop), the widget gets the last 3 months of your revenue to calculate an average, and then you can specify your monthly expenses and adjust a tax and buffer %.

Then you get a nice card that shows you how much you can pay yourself this month.
