Project Overview

FloatSync, a Toronto-based FinTech startup, approached us with a vision to revolutionize expense management for remote-first teams. Their founder, Sarah Chen, identified a gap in the market where existing expense tools were either too complex for small teams or lacked the real-time collaboration features remote workers needed.

They needed an MVP that could validate their product-market fit and attract early-stage investors. The challenge was building a secure, scalable platform that could handle financial data while maintaining a user-friendly interface that non-technical team members could use effortlessly.
