Fortuna
Your money,
understood.
Fortuna links to your real bank accounts and turns everyday spending into a plan — with Aura, your AI financial coach, guiding you the whole way.
Bank-linked budgeting
Connect accounts securely through Plaid — your spending updates itself, automatically.
Coaching from Aura
A financial coach that actually knows your numbers — personalized nudges, not generic advice.
Goals that adapt
Set a savings goal and let autopilot find room in your budget to hit it automatically.
Spending reflections
A quick check-in after purchases that matter, so you build awareness — not just tracking.
See where every dollar goes
Fortuna reads your transactions the moment they post and sorts them into a budget that reflects how you actually live — no manual entry, no spreadsheets.
A coach that knows your numbers
Aura looks at your real balances, bills, and habits — then talks to you like someone who's actually looked at your finances, not a canned tip generator.
AuraGoals that fund themselves
Set a target and Fortuna finds room in your budget to hit it — scheduling contributions automatically and adjusting as your spending changes.
Built with your bank-level trust in mind
We take the same posture a bank would with your data — because that's effectively what we're handling.
- Read-only bank connections. Fortuna reads your transactions and balances through Plaid — we never have the ability to move your money.
- Encrypted at rest. Bank credentials are encrypted before they're ever stored, not kept in plain text.
- You stay in control. Disconnect any linked account at any time, instantly, from inside the app.
- Built on Plaid. The same infrastructure trusted by many of the financial apps you already use.
Protected by design
Every account link runs through the same checks, every time.
A problem I needed to solve for myself
Fortuna started as my own problem. In college, juggling tuition, family expenses, and — very literally — my cats, I realized budgeting spreadsheets weren't the issue. I needed a better relationship with money altogether: emotional first, then logical.
So I built a system to balance multiple sources of income and figure out where every dollar actually needed to go. What began as a winter side project in November 2025 slowly became something bigger as I got more passionate about it. I'm a computer science and math student who loves solving exactly this kind of problem — and I want to make what I built for myself available to anyone trying to build a healthier relationship with their money.
