Wrapped up backend.
Today was mostly closing loops - fixing edge cases, cleaning things up, making sure it doesn’t randomly break and still in middle of it.
This is the part that actually makes things usable.We’re now at a point where the product works end-to-end but still rough.
Funny how finishing something feels quieter than starting it. Launch in a few days.
For early access please dm
Tl;dr: Orange is your finance friend you can call anytime. Early access is now open.
Hey everyone,
After leaving our jobs, we started building Orange app - 21 days ago and our beta app is finally live.
If you’re someone who wants to start investing but doesn’t know where to begin, or you’re already investing and want more clarity while making decisions, we’d love to onboard you.
Comment below and I’ll share the link. Or pls share this with someone who might need it.
TL;DR: A “market companion” you can actually call anytime to discuss about money, market and investments. Comment if you want early access.
21 days ago posted in this community about my frustration
Realised many people are stuck in the same loop
Spent 1500+ mins talking to users to understand how they make money decisions
7 days ago took a challenge to ship something in a week
Today, we’re live with early access.
IF THIS SOUNDS LIKE YOU:
This is for you.
We’re not building another advisor or a “learn investing” course.
It’s more like that nerdy finance bro who actually understands money, investments & markets
someone you can talk to, ask anything, and get clarity based on your situation.
Available 24/7. No jargon. No judgment. No Ghosting
For ACCESS please comment.
Got hit with a 3-day Reddit ban right after Day 7 - don’t know the reason. Anyway, ban’s gone now.
Since the last update, we’ve been heads down fixing things, talking to users, and getting the product ready for real people outside our circle.
Early access is now open for the first 100 users.
If you’re someone who wants to start or already investing but want clarity - talk to padii and see the magic.
Got these messages from early users today after trying Orange.
Honestly crazy seeing people spend hours talking to something we built.
Still a lot to improve. Bugs, UI issues, things breaking randomly sometimes.But moments like this make the chaos feel worth it.
One thing we keep hearing again and again from people:
It’s not that they don’t want to invest.
They just don’t have the time or mental energy to keep up with everything.
Most people already know they should manage money better.
But between work, life, and information overload -finance starts feeling like homework.
These conversations are shaping a lot of how we’re building Orange.
