The Fintech Dev

// I build tools that do the math so you don't have to.

Jack - The Fintech Dev

I'm Jack. I spent years building financial software at scale. Now I build the tools I wished existed — calculators, optimizers, and systems that turn financial complexity into clear decisions.

Everything here is free, open, and built without affiliate incentives. I read the fine print, run the numbers, and publish what I find — even when it's not what the industry wants you to hear.
