Ulunma: Did you know that communities of color have contributed labor and resources that drive growth in the global economy, but have not benefited financially from that growth?

We seek to leverage artificial intelligence to reduce the barriers that hinder communities of color and immigrants from achieving financial security. We make financial planning services and tools accessible and affordable.
