What it does
Hedge is the fastest growing social hub for Gen Z and millennial business enthusiasts in the world as well as the world's first finance super app.
How we built it
The app was 100% bootstrapped. We use Flutter for the front end and Firebase for the backend but are planning on migrating to Azure.
Challenges we ran into
Technical challenges to build and integrate an algorithm to better focus the interactions on business and finance.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We now have over 10k downloads on Android and thousands of monthly active users. We are also extremely popular among traditionally underserved communities and that is a great achievement for us.
What we learned
Bootstrapping an app of the this scale is HARD.
What's next for Hedge
We are currently leveraging our OpenAi credits offered through the Microsoft for Startups program to build an AI financial co-pilot that will be monetized on a subscription basis. We are also pushing forward our plans to become the world's first finance super app by building other tools that we cannot publicly talk about at the moment.
