CarPence vs Platefolio
Facts from each product's IndieNeed listing, side by side.
CarPence is a simple, free web app for UK drivers who want to know what their car is really costing them. Record fuel, servicing, repairs, tyres, insurance, MOT, tax, parking and other expenses, while keeping useful reminders in one place. It also tracks mileage, monthly average spending and cost per mile. CarPence has deliberately been kept simple and uncluttered.
Platefolio is a recipe manager built on one idea: the layout of a recipe should be your choice, not the app's. The same recipe renders five ways, you can pick per recipe: a clean cookbook page, a 4x6 notecard, a Cooking for Engineers style flowchart, a mobile-friendly CfE Rails view, or a step-by-step cook mode. Add recipes by hand, import from a URL, pasted text, or a photo/screenshot.
