Building your life involves many financial decisions, and it’s not always clear what the “right” move is. We’re working on new ideas to make managing personal finances feel simpler, more practical, and more in tune with real life.

We’re inviting adults across the U.S. to participate in a paid research session to share feedback on early concepts and prototypes. This is not a sales pitch. It’s a chance to react, reflect, and help shape tools designed to better support everyday financial decisions.

Your perspective matters. Honest, thoughtful feedback will directly inform solutions that are genuinely useful and grounded in real experiences.

The Details

  • Who: Adults living in the United States
  • What: individual, group, or asynchronous concept feedback session
  • When: Sessions scheduled throughout the month on a variety of dates and times
  • Where: Remote (via Zoom) or in person, depending on location and availability
  • Compensation: $100 for each one-hour research session

If selected, our team will follow up with scheduling details and next steps.
