The Foundation Years
orivandusphera began when three financial analysts noticed small Australian businesses struggling with cash flow predictions. We started in a cramped Brisbane office, working nights after our day jobs to build something different. Our first prototype could barely handle basic budget calculations, but it solved real problems for local cafes and retail shops.
Those early months taught us everything about listening to actual business needs rather than building what we thought people wanted. Every feature request from our first twelve customers shaped our core philosophy: financial tools should make sense to everyone, not just accountants.
