Money help for single moms

You're holding it all together. RISE helps you hold on to more.

Benefits you didn't know you qualified for. Fees you didn't know you were paying. A buffer you didn't think you could build. All in one place.

Built for you

Not another budgeting app.

You don't need an app to tell you money is tight. You already know. What you need is something that starts where you actually are — not where a two-income household is.

RISE was built specifically for single moms. Every screen, every feature, every word — designed for a woman managing a household on her own, stretching every dollar, and looking for solid ground.

What RISE does

Real tools. Not lectures.

♡

Benefits Finder

Answer a few questions and RISE matches you with programs you may qualify for — SNAP, Medicaid, childcare assistance, housing support. State-specific. Direct application links.

↻

Money Leak Scanner

Connect your bank and RISE scans for subscriptions you forgot, fees that shouldn't be there, and spending that's quietly draining your paycheck. You decide what to keep.

◈

Buffer Builder

Most savings advice doesn't work when there's nothing left. Buffer Builder meets you where you are — whether it's $5 from a cancelled subscription or breathing room after a paycheck.

☰

Paycheck Flow

Enter your bills, rank your priorities, and RISE builds a plan for your paycheck — what's covered and what needs attention. If there's a gap, RISE won't pretend it's not there.

✦

Weekly Win

Every week, one specific action you can take. Not a list of ten things. One real step that moves you forward.

♢

Crisis Resources

If things get urgent, RISE connects you directly to utility assistance, rental help, food resources, and more. No sign-up required. No judgment. Help when you need it most.

Why RISE exists

This started in a home with one parent and not enough.

I grew up in a single-parent home in South Africa. I watched my mom stretch every rand, carry every bill, and hold everything together without anyone asking how she was doing.

Years later, I found myself in a different country with a different career — but that picture never left. The woman doing everything alone. The system that wasn't built for her. The gap between what she needed and what was available.

RISE exists to close that gap. Not with advice from above. Not with lectures about what she should be doing differently. With real tools that meet her where she is and walk beside her.

Every feature in this app was built with one question: would this actually help the woman I watched growing up?
