The Problem

People drowning in high-interest credit card debt (often 27-29% APR) struggle to identify the most cost-effective payoff strategy across multiple cards, balance transfers, and consolidation loans. They face complex tradeoffs between minimum payments, transfer fees, intro APR windows, and credit score impacts without clear visibility into which approach saves the most money.

Potential Solution

A mobile app that securely connects to all credit card and loan accounts, then runs optimization algorithms to recommend the best payoff sequence (avalanche, snowball, or hybrid), identifies pre-qualified 0% balance transfer offers, and calculates exact savings. It automates monthly payment scheduling, tracks intro APR expiration dates, and alerts users before promotional rates end.

Why Now?

Credit card debt hit record highs in 2025 with average APRs above 24%, while open banking APIs (Plaid, MX) now make it trivial to aggregate debt data and automate payments across institutions.
