Try Finocket with sample data

Seed a realistic sample business with one tap, explore every screen with believable numbers, then clear it all safely — your real entries are never touched.

You can't feel how an accounting app works until it has data. Finocket's sample-data sandbox seeds a realistic small consultancy — clients, projects, payments, expenses across the last two weeks — so you can explore every screen with believable numbers before touching your real books. One tap to seed, one tap to clear.

How do I turn on sample data?

Three places offer it:

Dashboard first-run card — when your books have zero clients and zero invoices, the "Get started" card offers "Try with sample data" alongside "Add your first client" and "Take a quick tour".
The tour's Tally branch — if you picked the Tally-user branch on the tour, the final step offers sample data so you land on a populated Day Book.
Profile → Account & privacy — "Add sample data" and "Clear sample data" buttons, so you can seed and clear on demand at any time.

What gets seeded?

Three sample clients — an individual, a builder, a family — each with a Hyderabad address so intra-state GST examples work out of the box.
Two projects per client, and two site visits per client dated in the last two weeks.
Four sample payments across UPI, Cash and Bank Transfer.
Five sample expenses across Travel, Food, Automobile and Health Care.

The dashboard KPIs animate, visits pin to the map, and reports have real-looking shapes — enough to judge every module honestly.

How do I find and remove sample rows later?

Every seeded row starts with [SAMPLE] in its name or description. That means:

Search or filter for [SAMPLE] on any list screen to see just the sample rows.
Tap Clear sample data (Profile → Account & privacy) to delete every row carrying the prefix — one-tap cleanup.

The check is on the prefix, not on when a row was entered — so your real entries are never at risk, even if you mixed real work in between.

Can I use sample data and real data together?

Yes, safely. Many people seed samples, learn the screens, add a few real clients, then clear the samples. Because removal keys on the [SAMPLE] prefix, clearing removes only seeded rows and leaves your real books untouched. Just avoid starting your own entries with [SAMPLE].

Frequently asked questions

Will sample data mess up my GST reports?

While seeded, sample invoices and expenses do appear in report screens — that's the point, so you can see how reports behave. Clear the sample data before any real filing; the one-tap clear removes every seeded row and your reports reflect only real entries.

Can I re-seed after clearing?

Yes, as many times as you like. Profile → Account & privacy has both buttons side by side — Add sample data and Clear sample data. Each seed creates a fresh set with the [SAMPLE] prefix; each clear removes exactly that set.

Is there a way to try Finocket without creating an account?

Yes. The Try-it doorway pages open a no-signup sandbox where you can explore with sample-style data before registering. When you're ready, sign up and your real workspace starts clean — seed the sample data there again if you want.

How is clearing sample data safe for my real entries?

Removal matches only rows whose name or description starts with [SAMPLE] — a prefix the seeder puts on everything it creates. Nothing is removed by date, type or amount, so real entries you made before, during or after sampling are untouched.
