Show HN: Go Boldly – Duolingo for Financial Literacy (gobold.ly)
1 points by jmaha 865 days ago
Hey HN, I'm Joe, founder of Go Boldly. and we’re excited to help the world become more financially literate! We were inspired by awesome experiences like Duolingo, Oregon Trail, and Choose Your Own Adventure, and wanted to create a similarly beloved sense of learning, adventure, and exploration.

Our mission is to empower the billions who are overwhelmed by personal finance, with the knowledge and resources to make informed financial decisions and achieve long-term prosperity – regardless of their background or circumstances.

As a huge Star Trek geek, AI seemed like a technology for the distant future – more appropriate on the USS Enterprise than in our pockets today. Now that it’s here, we’re working on experiences that gamify learning, allowing people to explore the financial universe, embark on their own personal financial “journeys”, and gain confidence as they learn to adult.

We’re early in our own startup journey and still have a ways to go. So far, we’ve helped hundreds improve their financial literacy, but hope to impact many more. Would you check it out and share feedback on improving the product and experience? For direct contact, please reach out at joe@gobold.ly.

Thank you for your support!
