Build With Me
I'm not raising money to hire a team. I'm building this because I need it to exist.
Late ADHD diagnosis at 43 revealed £1,600 annual losses I did not know I was losing. Every budget app failed due to the same mechanism: they assumed I would remember.
What You Are Joining
- Early access. Priority notification when prototype testing begins (target Q2 2026). You will be among the first to use autonomous bill payment and spending protection actually designed for ADHD brains.
- Co-design input. Help shape system design through structured feedback sessions. Your lived experience with the ADHD Tax informs what gets built.
- Research participation. Optional involvement in clinical validation research with UKAAN. Help prove this works so others can access it.
- Building in public. Weekly blog updates documenting technical progress, prevented fees, regulatory navigation, and founder reality. No corporate polish, just truth.
Expected Time Commitment
Co-design phase: 2 to 3 feedback sessions (60 minutes each) during prototype development
Beta testing: Monthly 15-minute structured reviews plus system usage tracking
Research validation: Outcome measurement surveys at baseline, 3 months, 6 months
This Is For you, if
You're dealing with the ADHD Tax. Preventable financial losses from coordination failures.
You have the money but forget to pay bills. The payment slipped your mind or you could not execute when reminded.
You impulse buy during hyperfocus episodes. Purchases seem completely rational in the moment, then you realize you have spent £200 on something non-essential.
You cannot stick to budgets. No matter how hard you try, remembering to check the app, update it, and follow through requires executive function you do not reliably have.
You want autonomous support. Not advice you need to remember to implement. Execution, not instruction.
Join the Waitlist
The form takes a few minutes. I'm asking about your ADHD status, current late fees, and research interest so I can prioritize what gets built first.
