Why I built an AI money coach that actually gets me

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 Akshat here, maker of Finova AI. We're launching here soon and I couldn't be more excited to share what we've been building. But first, I wanted to share a bit about why this product exists at all.

Back in my early 20s, I was a typical young professional in India. Earning a decent paycheck, but totally lost when it came to managing my money. I diligently logged into my bank accounts each week and tried to make sense of my spending. But the numbers alone didn't help me. Was I saving enough? Spending on the right things? Making progress on my goals? I couldn't tell.

The apps I tried weren't much help either. They assumed everyone thought in dollars and millions. But my brain worked in rupees and lakhs! I didn't need another report, I needed an actual coach. Someone to look at my finances and give me clear next steps - in language I could relate to.

That's the experience I set out to build with Finova AI. It's not just another budgeting app. It's an AI coach that:

• Speaks your language (Rs, not $)

• Understands your real life (loans, EMIs, big family goals)

• Crunches the numbers for you and tells you exactly what to do next

No jargon, no judgment, just clear guidance to grow your money. Whether your next goal is building an emergency fund, saving for a wedding, or buying a house - Finova AI breaks it down into simple monthly actions. And it celebrates every small win along the way.

I truly believe AI can democratize access to high-quality, personalized financial advice. I see a future where everyone can have an expert money coach in their pocket. And that's the future we're building towards at Finova AI.
