Helping people get better with impulsive spending

Hey everyone,

My team and I are building MoneyCaptain (https://moneycaptainapp.com/) from the ground up. Our goal is to help people create better money habits.

I'd love it if members of the community can take a look at our site to give tips or feedback.

Appreciate you all and hope you and you families are safe.

    Consider including a quick and fun calculator to see how much you can save.

    The first animation with the blue and yellow circles / squares is bouncing back and forth and is very sluggish on my MacBook Pro / Firefox. Not a good impression. The other animations later are smooth.

    I agree with Jamalx31 that the value proposition is a bit negative, accusing and maybe making people feel guilty.

      Thanks so much kaioelfke I'll look into the image and rethink a better value prop.

    I like the website, nice design and interactive.
    I have an issue with the message tho. I don't think most people even aware of the fact that they have bad spending habits (need statistics here, i'm not sure about that). My first reaction was "ah I don't think I have bad habits, feels like its for shopaholics".

    "Curb your bad money habits." you are assuming that the visiter already know about his habits. I would rather say something like: "You can save up to 200$ a month by avoiding these habits" this one sounds like it brings the issue to the customer awareness.

    I'm not an expert but hope this helps :D

    @kaioelfke @jamalx31 and @READMEmoney wanted to say thanks again for your feedback. We implemented it all (as well as value props and screenshots) https://moneycaptainapp.com/ Thanks again, and stay well

    Nicely designed and unique landing page.

    The text seems very developer-centric. Is your target audience developers? I don't think "behavioral analytics and AI" will resonate with non-developers. Maybe something like "automatically learns your habits".

    Also, I would have liked to see more screenshots of your app -- I'm lazy and don't want to read the text to understand the features :)

    One last technical thing: when I opened the page, the white nav links were half invisible on top of the white background. The problem seems to happen when the screen is approximately 1000-1400px wide

      Thanks READMEmoney. My target audience isn't developers. I'll rethink the wording.
      Re: screenshots. Great idea.
      Re: white link, I'll QA deeper on different screen sizes.

      Thanks again, appreciate the advice

        Glad it was helpful.

        BTW, I just realized what branding your landing page reminded me of...Android!
