Financial Clarity Through Personal Connection

We started mavelythora because tracking money shouldn't feel like homework. Real people deserve straightforward tools and honest guidance for their financial goals.

Started in a Sydney Share House

Back in 2018, my flatmates and I were all struggling with the same thing — we had decent jobs but couldn't figure out where our money was going. The budgeting apps felt too complex, and financial advisors seemed focused on people with way more savings than us.

So we built something different. Not another flashy fintech app promising overnight wealth, but a practical system that actually helps people understand their spending patterns and work toward realistic goals.

"What if financial tracking could be as simple as checking your messages, but actually useful for your future?"

Seven years later, we're still asking the same question. We've helped thousands of Australians build better money habits without the complexity or false promises that flood this industry.

What Drives Us Every Day

Honest Progress Tracking

No misleading charts or fake milestones. We show you exactly where you stand with your goals and what realistic next steps look like.

Achievable Goal Setting

We help you set financial targets that actually fit your life situation, not some theoretical perfect budget that nobody can maintain.

Real Human Support

When you get stuck, you'll talk to someone who understands Australian financial realities — not an overseas call center reading scripts.

Built by People Who Get It

Our team combines practical finance experience with genuine understanding of everyday Australian money challenges.

Founder & Product Lead

Started mavelythora after working in traditional banking for six years and seeing how disconnected financial services were from real people's needs. Still lives in the same Sydney suburb where the idea began, and tests every new feature on his own budget first.

What We Stand For

Transparent Progress

We show you exactly how you're tracking toward goals without sugar-coating setbacks or inflating achievements.
Practical Solutions

Our tools work for people with irregular income, student loans, and the real financial complexity of modern Australian life.
Long-term Thinking

We focus on building sustainable financial habits rather than promising quick fixes that don't last.
Privacy First

Your financial data stays secure and private. We don't sell information or push products based on your spending patterns.

How We Actually Help

Instead of overwhelming you with features, we focus on the three things that actually make a difference in achieving financial goals.

Step One

Understanding Your Current Reality

We start by helping you see where your money actually goes, not where you think it should go. This means looking at real spending patterns over several months rather than creating theoretical budgets.

Step Two

Setting Realistic Targets

Based on your actual spending history, we help you identify achievable savings goals and timeline adjustments. No dramatic lifestyle changes required — just small, consistent improvements.

Staying on Track Without Stress

Our system sends you helpful check-ins and progress updates without judgment. When life happens and budgets get disrupted, we help you adjust goals rather than abandon them entirely.
