Why people look for a CoinTracker alternative
Subscription cost adds up
CoinTracker's useful features — tax reports, unlimited transactions — are gated behind paid plans starting at $59/year. For simple portfolio tracking, that's often overkill.
Separate from your workflow
CoinTracker is a standalone app. Your portfolio lives there, disconnected from your notes, research, goals, and daily workspace.
You can't customize the layout
You see the views CoinTracker gives you. No custom properties, no gallery view, no linking coin rows to your research or DCA logs.
Your data depends on their platform
If CoinTracker changes its pricing, shuts down a feature, or closes — your portfolio history is at risk. In Notion, your data is yours.
Why Notion is a better home for your portfolio
It lives in your workspace
Your portfolio is already connected to your notes, research pages, DCA logs, and daily tasks — no app switching.
Full layout control
Build table, gallery, or board views. Add any custom property. Sort by P&L, filter by chain, display only what matters.
Link everything together
Each coin row can link to a research page, wallet address, or tax note. Notion's relations make this seamless.
Your data is yours
Export anytime as CSV. Share with a partner via Notion sharing. Your portfolio history doesn't depend on any third-party platform.
The missing piece: live prices
Notion doesn’t have built-in live price support. Pulsn fills that gap — it connects CoinGecko to your Notion database and keeps every price property automatically updated, on a schedule you control.

How to migrate from CoinTracker to Notion
Export your CoinTracker portfolio
In CoinTracker, export your portfolio as CSV. This gives you your coin list and holdings to import into Notion.
Import into Notion
Create a new Notion database and import the CSV, or manually recreate the rows — most portfolios have fewer than 20 coins.
Add properties for live data
Add Number properties: Current Price, Market Cap, 24h Change. Leave them empty — Pulsn will fill them in.
Connect Pulsn
Go to pulsn.app, connect your Notion workspace, and set up sync flows for each coin. Your prices start updating automatically.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a free alternative to CoinTracker?
Yes. Pulsn has a free plan that syncs live crypto prices into one Notion database, forever. No credit card required.
Can I track crypto in Notion with live prices?
Yes. Pulsn connects CoinGecko to your Notion database and automatically updates price, market cap, 24h change, and volume for any coin or token.
Does Pulsn support tax reporting like CoinTracker?
Pulsn focuses on keeping live prices in Notion — it doesn't generate tax reports. For tax reporting, a dedicated tool like CoinTracker or Koinly is better suited. Many users combine Notion + Pulsn for day-to-day tracking, and a tax tool at year end.
How do I migrate from CoinTracker to Notion?
