Financial wellbeing is the feeling of paying your bills on time, every time. It’s feeling capable of covering the cost of a broken phone, and the absence of that guilty feeling for treating yourself to the odd meal out or holiday. Essentially, it’s feeling cool, calm, and balanced with your money.
We're not on the app store... Yet! Our app is still in closed beta, so things are still being built, tested, and tweaked. We want our app to be the best version of itself before we make things official, but we want you to be able to play around and see how things are looking (and tell us your thoughts!). So that's why you can download a beta version of our app here on our website.
We began our beta testing adventures in 2023. Since then, with the amazing help of you guys, we've been able to update, improve, and add new features that have come from your suggestions and feedback. Now, we're looking for more feedback and ideas to help us get our app onto the app store as a fully fleshed out financial wellbeing app of pure good vibes. So basically, we're not quite a finished app just yet. But we're still full of good stuff for you to try out and help improve.
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, is a psychology-based approach that helps you identify and challenge negative thoughts, patterns, and behaviours for better mental health. At Good With, we use CBT-based approaches to our features to assist in recognising and tackling unhelpful thoughts and behaviours related to money, empowering you to create healthier financial habits and overall wellbeing. Good vibes all round, basically.
Built by psychologists, proven to reduce money stresses. From the get-go, you can unlock a deeper understanding of your relationship with money. In using the Good With app, you’ll gather the tools to reduce stress and anxiety that's driven by money, so things are more digestible, manageable, and frictionless. Adulting, a little less stressful.

By tracking your mood and your spending together, you can unlock deeper insights into how your brain works and reacts to your personal finances.

Conversations are predominantly led by the chatbot. The more you chat, the more it recognises what topics are the most relevant to you and the better suited it will be to support your specific goals. Our chatbot is free from bias and supports you based on the facts and information you provide.
Over time, we collect conversation logs from users (stored under your unique ID, so we can’t see your name or personal details) and will use these to train our chatbot to be more fluent and expand its responses. Our chatbot is grounded in scientific principles and is constantly learning how to be the best financial wellbeing bff for you. If you have any queries about our use of AI, you can talk to us directly at help@goodwith.co.
