Our Financial Journey
From a simple idea about making budgeting less overwhelming to building Australia's most trusted minimalist financial platform
The Beginning
Caspian Blackwood started talemoriqosae from his Adelaide garage after struggling with complicated budgeting apps that felt more like accounting software than helpful tools. The idea was refreshingly simple – what if managing money didn't require spreadsheets or fifteen different categories?
"Most budgeting tools were built by accountants, not by people who actually struggled with money management" - Caspian's original mission statement
Finding Our Voice
After four years of listening to users and refining our approach, we discovered something interesting. People didn't want more features – they wanted fewer, better ones. We stripped away everything except the essentials and rebuilt talemoriqosae around three core principles: clarity, simplicity, and genuine usefulness.
This year marked our transition from a startup to a trusted platform, with over 50,000 Australians using talemoriqosae daily
Today & Tomorrow
We're now proud to serve a community of mindful budgeters who've collectively saved over million using our platform. But what excites us most isn't the numbers – it's hearing how talemoriqosae has helped people sleep better at night, knowing exactly where their money goes without the stress of complex financial planning.
Our upcoming learning program launches in late 2025, designed to teach practical money skills that work in real life, not just on paper
