'Cleo' is a money app that recently announced the 'Cleo Haunt Me' in-app experience for Halloween. The application itself is designed to help users track their spending patterns, identify where money can be saved, and feel more confident about their personal finances.
The Haunt Me experience allows users to type "Haunt Me" in the chat section within Cleo to receive insights into their money habits in a fun, conversational way. These money insights will identify spooky spending habits, such as a daily pumpkin spice latte or one too many restaurant meals in a week, and help educate users on where their money is going.
Within the experience, Cleo will provide personalized advice to users on how to manage their money, including increasing savings and curbing excess spending.
