The startup was backed by A-list fintech VC firm Ribbit, as well as General Catalyst and Restive. The company was founded in 2023 and launched its AI tool about five months ago.

Users entered financial information like salary, debts, and monthly costs, and the app modeled different what-if scenarios to help them make financial decisions."
