Me Steady exists because nobody should have to navigate a financial crisis alone, confused, or ashamed. We built this platform for the person staring at a debt letter they don't understand, the parent choosing between heating and eating, the worker whose hours just got cut with no warning.
We believe that with the right information at the right time, explained clearly and without judgement, people can find their way through. Not with magic solutions, but with real steps: money they're entitled to, letters they can send, jobs they can start this week.
What Me Steady does
•
Understands your documents
Upload a bank statement, debt letter, or benefit decision. Our AI reads it and explains what it means in plain English.
•
Finds money you're owed
We check your situation against every UK benefit, grant, and hardship fund we know about, including ones most people miss.
•
Helps you write back
Generates editable letter drafts for creditors, landlords, or HMRC requesting payment extensions or hardship consideration.
•
Finds fast-paying work
Surfaces immediate-start jobs near you, ranked by how quickly you'll actually get paid, not by long-term career fit.
What we don't do
We do not provide regulated debt advice. We do not negotiate with creditors on your behalf. These are regulated activities in the UK. For regulated advice, contact StepChange (0800 138 1111), National Debtline (0808 808 4000), or Citizens Advice.
Privacy by design
Me Steady is built stateless. Your uploaded documents are processed in real-time and immediately deleted. We never store your bank statements, debt letters, or benefit decisions. Your data stays yours.
For organisations
Me Steady is available as a B2B licensed platform for charities, local councils, housing associations, and employers who want to offer financial wellbeing support to the people they serve.

Always free for individuals
The consumer-facing Me Steady app is and will always be completely free for individual users. Our business model is B2B licensing. Organisations pay so that people in crisis don't have to.
Built with care
Me Steady is designed mobile-first because the people who need it most are often accessing it from a phone, under stress, possibly with limited data. Every screen is built to be simple, fast, and non-judgmental.
We test with real users in real financial difficulty. If something doesn't make sense or feels patronising, we fix it.
