You're not wrong about the look and feel of that website - I would run far far away before I gave money to a website that looks that scammy.

Bottom line: financial products require an incredibly high degree of trust for most people, and this feels very much like the work of a sincere developer working alone and without a lot of product design experience. All the little issues (copy, design, presentation, unknown solo developer) that would be forgivable in a product of any other kind become red flags and deal breakers when my finances are concerned.
I hope this is helpful feedback! Keep on building!
There is nothing wrong with it, apart from my usual criticism to landing pages like this: I still have no clue what is it for, or who I must be to use it, what exact problem I have that it could solve. But that’s in line with virtually everything. Nobody puts a history like “Tired of manually entering your invoices? Want automatic categorizing of expenses? Your bank formats are illegible crap? …” anymore.
I wonder what critics above think of e.g. curve.fi, which is serious enough to eat $1000 per transaction.
Edit: yeah, the app looks more like “modern” “design” “thing” to me, but it’s just me missing clear UI borders and color-cued sidebars and property sheets.
> Nobody puts a history like
Yeah, a bunch of people here told me we have a huge problem with copy. Will rework it. Storytelling is not my feature, but I'll try my best :)

Will think of a better way, thanks!
Also, the name and domain seem like you're compensating for something, or trying to trick people. If a bank has big signs saying, "No, we won't steal your money, promise" that opens up a whole lot of questions. Why do you need to put "safe" all over the place? Is there some reason I should think it isn't safe?
Lol :) Thanks for your honest feedback! The app looks more traditional, btw. (https://imgur.com/a/KabWkNS) Based on the feedback here I will probably change the landing page to something more traditional.

Wow, that is the opposite thing we were aiming for. There are a lot of other apps that provide the same value while being completely unsafe to use. We're just emphasizing on the core value. Strange to hear that it causes the opposite reaction.
I'm not sure it's a high converting site because I couldn't understand what you were offering but I'll remember the design.
