One Bold, Cancer-Fighting Computer Scientist Is Creating Consumer-Based Financial Visualizations w/ Brandon Dewitt

It would be easy to chalk Brandon’s passion into something driven by his near-death experiences. But that’s only half the story.

Brandon Dewitt is CTO at MX, a company that grew from the merging of his own company, MyJibe. At his heart, he’s a computer scientist. He wants to help people solve real-life problems, by separating out those things computers do well to help people with their lives.

But a while back, he found out he had over a dozen tumors. The docs gave him 30 to 90 days. That was over 4 years ago.

On this episode of the Payments Innovation Podcast, Brandon discusses his passion for consumer-friendly, computer-driven financial analysis built for the everyday person.

What we talked about:

  • Everyday people need a different financial visualization
  • Visibility for consumers
  • Showing a consumer’s “trajectory,” with colors and graphs, not just the exact numbers
  • Consumers don’t want to look at their own numbers
  • The banking industry is becoming more consumer-focused
  • Banks actually want to do what’s best for the consumer
  • Brandon’s beating more than cancer
  • Financial services is really good at reducing risk
