All-in-one dashboard to manage, monitor, and fix Stripe & Plaid across apps
Solo developers building personal finance apps face nightmare Stripe and Plaid integrations with constant API changes and fees devouring slim margins.
FinDash is a control panel for solo devs juggling multiple fintech apps: connect keys once, visualize transactions/bank links, get change alerts, and apply one-click patches. It simulates fees/margins pre-launch and alerts on compliance drifts, eliminating scattered docs and manual audits.
