Mint.com is going away. Are there any alternatives that are as automatic and simple? (www.theverge.com)

I tried it for some time but couldn't get past the onerous need to reconcile and categorize every single transaction that it detects. It finally made me shut down my account because it caused me such great anxiety.

It auto categorizes now but it's still a little tedious, sometime recently they added batch categorizing so I can grab all the restaurants and add that to my Eating Out category but it also forces me to look at my finances every couple days which is a good habit imo.
