Great work bud, one suggestion the UI is easily identifyable as claude design designed, you can change this

Slick website. I just downloaded the app. Onboarding works well.

Thank you, that's fair feedback. I'm a full-stack swe, not a designer, so I used Claude to help get to a clean and functional UI. As the product matures, I'll probably invest more time in developing a stronger visual identity. I really appriciate your feedback. Thanks again.

This is pretty cool! Do you have a roadmap or planned features list? I'm curious how you plan on maturing the project.

Very cool, this is something that feels like it should be so much more ubiquitous than it unfortunately is. The financial health/wellness space seems to be heating up, so best of luck in your roll out.

Any future enhancements planned around financial analysis or are you focused on interactive education?

Just out of curiosity, are you referring to the app itself or the website? I am now realizing that my own website shares similar design elements, so I assume that is what you're referring to, but I think the app is pretty solid and distinct.

I used Claude to help with both designs web/mobile, I fed it what I want the UI to look/feel like including some references I had gathered online.

Thank you very much. I do not have a roadmap yet, I will surely have one if the app performs well. Currently I am trying to market the app, which in itself proves to be so difficult for me right now.
