Our take
There’s certainly no shortage of apps available to help you manage your finances, track your spending and help you to save money. Albert is one such app, but with a different approach that makes it perhaps more useful than some of the alternatives. Albert provides its customers with financial advice from a team of experts that it dubs ‘geniuses’.
So alongside the features for budgeting such as tracking spending and automatic saving, there’s personal advice on hand. It’s this blend of automation and human interaction that sets Albert apart from purely app based competitors which include Simplifi, You Need a Budget and Mint.
The business is utilizing funding capital to further develop its financial wellness tool set and help automate more financial processes for savers and investors.
