Summary

Strabo is a portfolio tracker that provides users with a holistic overview of their financial accounts, including bank accounts, investment accounts, cryptocurrencies, pensions, real estate, and alternatives across different countries, in one dashboard with seamless FX and forward-looking portfolio analytics. The platform uses open banking APIs to connect financial accounts together, allowing users to see what they have in any country and its value in real-time. Strabo was built on the no-code platform Bubble, which provides a simple front-end and back-end environment for building consumer-facing finance platforms. The founders, Michael Magdongon and Ben Waterman, are passionate finance and business people with experience spanning wealth management, operations, venture capital, entrepreneurship, and sports. They chose Bubble due to its ease of use, scalability, and large community of developers who have built free plugins for various features. Strabo aims to provide users with the best end-to-end experience of any financial platform, offering comprehensive asset coverage, analytics, and customizability. Long-term plans include automated tax filing, account opening, complex analytics, and tailored financial education.
