Smart Insights

Chexy already holds the bills. Our users, financial optimizers, keep their own spreadsheets of which card earns most on which bill. The goal was to do that for them, and better.

While every fintech is fighting to be Canada’s sixth bank. Chexy’s angle is to capture the household bills.

Calendar

A calendar view of all your bills. Difficult to visualize in a personal Excel sheet. A snapshot of your money in (pay) and money out (bills). Simple enough to already exist in consumer fintech. It didn’t. 92% called it helpful.

Users were asking to add bills from outside the platform — an opportunity to upsell.

See both money in and money out.
3
Stamp credit card due dates
Opportunity to enhance with statement dates, and the extra runway Chexy buys them.

Cash flow

Equipping my Product lead with the toolkit to prototype. I stepped in to clean up, refine, and hand off. Users can visualize their total pay, less their bills, to see what’s leftover. And whether that’s a healthy number. 67% called it helpful.

Barometer of total pay allocated to bills
Calculate your safe-to-spend number.

Credit card overview

Late payments are painful, and not every bank reminds you when a statement posts or when it’s due. Chexy puts every card in one view and reminds you before the date. Set up auto-pay and you get overdraft protection with it, and up to 14 days to pay us back.

Edge cases: If a user had over 5 credit cards in their wallet.
2
A combined bar chart of your total credit card spend.
3
Your credit card utilization, per card.
Define the utilization goal: 10% or 30%
Credit card overview

A strong MVP launch. Now we listen for what people want next.

We’re tracking new bills added per user, the share who connect a bank account or a card, credit card statements paid through Chexy, and time spent in the insights.

The rest comes from chatter — what people say about it, what they ask to see next, what it gives them ideas for.
