Hi Product Hunt! Mike here, the person behind Kaevo (rhymes with "KY-voh"). The short version of why this exists: one morning I realized our mortgage was in one app, our passport expirations were in another, and a $16,000 trip itinerary was living in a third place, which was my memory. Nothing talked to anything. Every household I know runs this way: a budget app, a maintenance spreadsheet, a drawer labeled "important," and a low-grade feeling of forgetting something. I spent 25 years building enterprise software, got laid off in May when a private equity acquisition ended my VP role, and decided the thing I actually wanted to exist was worth building myself. So I built Kaevo solo, first commit to paying users in about four months, using AI agents as my engineering team. It is an AI household operating system. Think of it as a chief of staff for your family's entire life: money, home, travel, documents, and the decisions that touch all of them. That last part is the whole point, and one moment made me believe it. I asked the AI "Can we afford a $4,000 trip this fall?" against a tight test household, and instead of the encouraging answer every app gives, it came back: "Not without a plan." It showed the shortfall to the dollar, flagged that the monthly deficit widens the gap over time, and set the emergency fund off-limits on its own. Anyone can build an AI that says "sure, go for it." The value lives in the moments it pushes back with receipts. Against a healthy household, the same question got a yes, plus a catch no calculator makes: it flagged another planned trip budgeted at $17,840 with $0 actually paid toward it. It knew about a commitment that had never touched the budget, because in Kaevo the travel plans and the budget are the same body of knowledge. There are a dozen good budgeting apps, and I am honestly not trying to be the thirteenth. Budgeting is one module here. The household is the product. Nobody was building the connective layer, so I did. Where it stands honestly: launched quietly in July, small and early, a 14-day free trial with real encryption, no data selling, and a founder who reads every reply personally because there is nobody else to read them. I documented the last seventeen days of getting here, honest numbers included, at kaevo.ai/blog/build-log. I would genuinely love your eyes on the product: what's confusing, what's missing, what you'd never pay for. The blunt version helps most. Ask me anything about the product, the solo build, or what it's like shipping a full SaaS with AI agents as your only teammates. I'll be here all day.
