FoundMoney

The most privacy-forward personal finance tool available. Shows you the spending you already have that could go toward something you want. Helps with intentional spending, if that's what you're going for. No judgment here.

unknown is a feature. A wrong category is worse than no category — it produces a confident recommendation about money that isn't there.

CircumFi

Right-sized financial technology for small business lenders.

The bloat isn't an accident. Platforms are priced to sell breadth, and lenders pay for it whether they use it or not.

GoodBread Innovations

Personal assistant triage

I text myself constantly. Little to-do reminders, videos to watch later, a cool /skill to check out on GitHub, an X post, a random fun idea. This turns that stream into structured records without me sorting it.

Agent-assisted, not agent-decided. It classifies, defers, and drafts. It doesn't close things on my behalf.
