Why I made it
Shared homes should not need five different apps.
Living with other people often means using a banking app for payments, messages for reminders, a calendar for plans and memory for everything else.
I am building Cofori with Hollie Baker and Kevin Tshribi to bring those everyday tasks together. Shared and personal responsibilities stay distinct, while bills, plans and conversations remain connected to the people in the home.
Cofori
For everyone, with an experience that feels useful rather than cold or financial.
The individual, because each person's responsibility should still be clear.
Inside the product
Everything the household needs, in one place.
A bill arrives, someone pays it, others send their share, a plan gets made and the house talks about it. Cofori keeps those moments connected.
Real Maple House mobile screens captured on 7 October 2026, using a fictional household to demonstrate bills, plans and chat.
01
Bills that explain themselves
Keep shared and personal expenses separate, repeat monthly bills and see who owes whom. Receipts and Smart Import support the journey from purchase to settle-up.
02
Plans live with the people
Shared and personal plans meet in a household calendar. Events and RSVP responses help everyone keep track of what is happening next.
03
Conversation in context
Household chat and direct messages keep conversations close to the people involved, with replies, reactions, photos and voice notes.
How it works
One connected product, not a pile of separate features.
Bills & receipts
Shared and personal expenses, monthly repeats, Smart Import and clear settle-up flows.
Household
A Notice Board, activity, reminders and member availability keep the home informed.
Plans & calendar
Shared and personal plans, household scheduling, events and RSVP responses.
Conversations
Household chat, direct messages, replies, reactions and voice notes in the same app.
Character-led product design
Pockets makes household admin feel friendlier.
Pockets changes pose and tone depending on what is happening. Overdue, pending and settled bills each get a clear visual cue before the user reads the details.
“Cofori should feel like a helpful housemate, not a finance dashboard with friendly colours.”
From idea to working product
From household problem to a working beta.
I lead product direction, UX/UI, brand refinement, character direction and the responsive build. Hollie Baker and Kevin Tshribi are building Cofori with me. Hollie also contributed the name, initial logo direction and original Pockets concept.

Less chasing.
More living.

The outcome
A real product, not just a portfolio concept.
