The problem

People know they have debt but lack a clear, motivating system to attack it. Spreadsheets are powerful but cold; existing apps are cluttered and anxiety-inducing.

The solution

A clean, encouraging debt payoff app built around the snowball and avalanche methods, with clear visualizations and celebration moments that keep users going.

Progress

  • Live on the App Store
  • React Native app on a Supabase backend
  • Building the next set of features in public

Lessons learned

  • 01

    The FinTech audience is extremely sensitive to trust; design matters enormously

  • 02

    Simple wins: the core debt payoff visualization is the entire product

  • 03

    Building in public generated early waitlist signups before a line of code was written
