Case Study: Fintech MoneyHaven launches AI-powered tanda MVP in under 30 days with Hal9

Hal9 Helps MoneyHaven Launch AI-Powered Tanda App

MoneyHaven is a pioneering fintech startup that brings the Latin American tanda to the USA with an AI companion to curb overspending and support collaborative savings. To validate generative AI use and a full‑stack application in under 30 days, MoneyHaven partnered with Hal9 and used the Hal9 Platform to rapidly prototype and test app interface, backend, database connectivity, and AI-driven user interactions.

Hal9 built a working AI-powered tanda MVP in under 30 days using the Hal9 Platform—delivering a web app for savings goals and group setup, a minimal backend and database, and a conversational agent for personalized financial guidance. The prototype validated key architectural assumptions and AI integration, led to the decision to embed a custom in‑app chat, and provided a scalable foundation and roadmap for MoneyHaven’s next product iterations.
