About this episode

The episode discusses the impact of AI on financial apps and features an interview with Josh Daniell from Akahu.

Imagine having a financial adviser in your pocket. With AI innovations transforming what finance apps are capable of, that reality might not be too far away. Instead of just tracking your spending, saving and investments, advances internationally are increasingly seeing the apps able to do everything from scanning the market for better deals or returns, to making recommendations and then executing them on your behalf. Josh Daniell, the co-founder of Akahu – which connects bank accounts to third-party tools like tracking apps – joins Nadine to talk through the rapidly evolving world of finance apps.
