Born from a Workout: Finni’s Quest to Make Finance Fun for All

We’re Finni, a gamified financial literacy app born from a spark of inspiration during a gym session. Our founder and his brother, reflecting on past ventures and their parents’ advice—“You’re lucky to learn finance young”—saw a gap. Most people don’t get that chance, learning critical money skills too late, often in their 40s. Our mission is to make financial literacy accessible, engaging, and fun for everyone, especially teachers and students, through game-like learning.

Where We Stand: The Financial Literacy Gap

A 2025 survey by the National Financial Educators Council found that 68% of young adults can’t answer basic finance questions. This gap has real consequences:

Only 22% of teachers feel confident managing personal finances or teaching financial literacy.
Gen Z, facing the largest wealth transfer in history, is unprepared, with 65% lacking budgeting skills.
Over 50% of students report financial stress impacting their studies or mental health.

These stats reveal a pressing need for accessible financial education tools.
