In short

How do I track my Wealthfront goal progress automatically each week?

WebRun checks your Wealthfront investing and cash account balances every Monday, reads progress against each goal you have set, and notes any tax loss harvesting activity recorded that week. It logs the numbers to a Google Sheet and emails a short recap, so you can see your progress without logging in yourself.

  • Goal progress is visible every Monday instead of only when you happen to log in
  • A full weekly history builds up in Sheets for spotting trends over months
  • Harvesting activity is logged automatically so nothing is missed at tax time

Built for Wealthfront investors · robo advisor users · long term savers · goal based investors

Questions, answered

Will WebRun move money between my Wealthfront accounts?

No. WebRun only reads your balances and goal progress. It never transfers funds, changes an automated investing setting, or moves money in or out of your Wealthfront accounts.

Does it know why tax loss harvesting happened?

It reads the harvesting activity already recorded in your account and notes it in the weekly log. It does not decide when harvesting happens, since that is handled by Wealthfront itself.

Can I track more than one goal?

Yes. It reads every goal set up in your Wealthfront account and logs progress for each one in the same weekly row.
