How they describe themselves:
At Thrive, we're bringing financial advice to the web in order help people improve their
financial health. We start by organizing your finances in one place and highlighting the
pieces that matter most. Next, we analyze your spending, saving, and debt to assess your
Financial Health, distilling it down to an easy-to-understand score. Then, our Financial
Advisory Engine analyzes each dimension of your Financial Health along with your
behavior to generate personalized, step-by-step advice. As your Financial Health
improves, Thrive helps you plan for your future whether you're saving to buy a house or
saving for retirement.
What they think makes them better: The current financial marketplace is complicated, predatory, and does little to help people
in their twenties and thirties. Existing software and even current online tools assume that
by giving users visibility into their spending, financial woes such as hefty debt, empty
savings and lack of know-how will solve themselves. We believe that reporting what
people do is not enough. With our patent-pending financial advisory engine, Thrive
bridges the gap between the current generation of online money management tools and
the expensive face-to-face advice you'd receive from an offline financial advisor.
