UX & Product Designer
9 个月I really enjoyed the AI start up news, many thanks. As a UX designer working in AI, I would like to share our generative AI Finance modeling software launch today on Product Hunt - it has been described as fun to use! We see it as being a useful complement to an experienced Finance Manager and could also be great fit for Founders - we would welcome any feedback and support: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/blox-financial-planning-analysis
