What our users are saying
Our users come from a wide range of professions and backgrounds. Here's what they have to say about Intentions.
"Intentions, and the philosophy behind the app, have really helped me approach my finances without feeling overwhelmed. It’s been a fantastic tool for tracking my unconventional cash flow streams and gaining a clearer understanding of how I can best support my lifestyle, and truly see how my spending and earning aligns with my values."
Rachana
Professional Dance Artist
"Intentions represents a paradigm shift for personal finance apps. The perspective on your money giving you value and identifying where you want to make changes in your life is novel and refreshing. The focus on AI-based automation allows me to pinpoint where and why I spend money, helping me improve my relationship with my spending habits."
Mehmet
CFO
"I used to measure my finances purely by month-end balance. The insights about my purchase habits and general behaviour around the people and places in my life has highly incentivized me to review transactions individually. It’s genuinely made me more introspective even beyond finances, but about my time and values. "
