For the past two months,

With some friends, I've been building "Mo Money": a Duolingo-style app to teach investing through a gamified mix of microlearning and a real-time trading simulator (but it's a game). It's meant to be built as much for total beginners as it is for amateurs.

Sim side: A fully playable trading game backed by historical market data (no real $$), it's now integrated with a FastAPI backend, WebSockets, Firebase (soon), and XP system to track skill growth and gamify progress.

Learning side: A clean microlearning stack that teaches financial literacy in snack-sized bits, a lot like Duolingo, it's interactive, level-based & accurate and relevant information in the most digestible format.

Just added: a lightweight AI tutor for contextual Q&A during lessons. Thinking of adding a little more AI than a chatbot potentially to help learners in the app.

Upcoming: XP-linked achievements, a leaderboard, and a light paywall via Buy Me a Coffee.

We're undergrads building this from scratch, aiming for early users soon. If you’ve ever thought “I wish someone made markets feel learnable,” we’re trying to do just that. super excited
