Response from developer
Thanks for the honest feedback, and you have a fair point buried in there. The security details are on our FAQ and privacy page, but if you never went looking for them, that's on us for not putting them where the question actually comes up. We'll fix that. One thing I want to put your mind at ease on: we don't have your routing number and we have no way to get it. Bank connections go through Plaid, and we only request transaction data. The Plaid product that returns account and routing numbers is called Auth, and we removed it during Plaid's review process because we don't need it. We can't move money and we've never had that ability. Linking a bank is also completely optional. The benefits side is the heart of the app and works fully without it. Most of our users have never connected an account. On the app itself, I'd ask you to give the benefits side a look before you write it off. It screens you against over 4,000 federal and state programs, puts a dollar figure on the ones you qualify for, and links the .gov source for each. There are six calculators built to match the VA's published tables exactly, plus a map of in-person military discounts. The AI is one piece of that, not the product. I'm a veteran, I built this because nobody handed me this list when I got out, and I take it seriously when it misses. If you want to tell me what you were expecting, I'd genuinely like to hear it. Either way, thanks for taking the time.
