WaddleWallet - Personal Finance "Pet" App (Consumer fintech)
Insight
Gen Z feels anxiety checking their bank account, so finance needs to feel supportive, not transactional
What I Built
- AI-driven finance companion with a "pet" UX
- Focused on simple, daily decision-making (not complex tracking)
- Mobile-first, chat-based experience
Growth Strategy
- Built a short-form content engine (TikTok/Reels)
- Focused on relatable money moments (spending guilt, balance anxiety)
- Rapid iteration across hooks, formats, and narratives
Results
4,000 users in 90 days (organically) • 2.5M+ views generated • Contributed to 20k+ total downloads and 20M+ views across projects • Validated content-to-app funnel in consumer fintech

LoveBent - AI Breakup Counselor (mobile + web, Reddit distribution)
Insight
r/breakups is a high-emotion, high-intent channel, so immediate value converts well even when the product itself is a general AI breakup counselor
What I Built
- AI breakup counselor for mobile and web
- Internal tool built with v0 and Cursor: take a user's r/breakups post and turn it into an in-app experience
- Let people interact with the response before downloading
Growth Strategy
- Posted directly in r/breakups threads
- Delivered an instant "aha" moment
- Gated after ~3 messages, then pushed to the app
Results
500k+ messages sent in app • Strong repeat usage driven by emotional entry points • Validated Reddit to demo experience to app conversion funnel
