Looking for a mission-aligned CTO / technical cofounder

I’m building Budget+/CashFlow, an AI-powered financial operating system designed to serve the 100%—not just the elite. It’s not just another budgeting tool. Think: smarter financial inner voice, agentic behavior, and ML-powered coaching that actually helps people move forward with clarity, accountability, and confidence.

I’ve spent 10+ years as a financial planner. I’ve distilled a repeatable system that works—and is now ready to scale with AI/ML.

I’m looking for a hands-on technical partner who can:

Architect a lean, modular full-stack platform

Build behavior-driven UX + personalization (Plaid, Yodlee, etc.)

Deploy ML models (LLMs, NLP/NLU, RLHF, rec systems, etc.)

Prototype fast, ship faster

Help define what intelligent finance should look and feel like

This is a ground-floor opportunity to co-create something era-defining.

If you’re a 10x builder who sees code as a way to empower millions, DM me or let’s chat.

Let’s build the financial system people actually deserve. —Ari
