Stakeholder review · 26 Apr
A wallet that tucks away spare change every time you spend, in the background, until the next time you check in.
The insight
From 312 in-app interviews. The single biggest pain point isn't budgeting — it's the feeling of money disappearing.
"I open my banking app, see €387 in my account, and just close it. I don't know what I'd do with that information."
— L., 24, Lisbon
"I've tried four budgeting apps. They all want me to log meals. I'm not going to."
— M., 28, Brooklyn
"What if I didn't have to do anything, and at the end of the month it just told me 'you saved $47'?"
— S., 22, Berlin · the seed of Pulse.
