Voiceflow Agent's Workflow

RamseyAI

Inspiration

In the past 20 years, average household debt and cost of goods have more than doubled while salaries remained stagnant. With 28% of Americans having less than $1,000 in savings, there's a clear need for accessible financial guidance. We created an AI-powered solution to make Dave Ramsey's proven Baby Steps methodology instantly accessible to anyone seeking financial freedom.

What it does

RamseyAI is an intelligent financial coaching assistant that guides users through Dave Ramsey's 7 Baby Steps:

$1,000 starter emergency fund
Debt snowball for all non-mortgage debt
3-6 months fully funded emergency fund
15% retirement investing
Children's college fund
Early mortgage payoff
Building wealth and giving

The app provides personalized assessment, step-by-step guidance, and interactive chat coaching powered by AI to help users identify their current position and next actions.

How we built it

Frontend: Built with React 19.2.0 featuring smooth scrolling navigation, scroll-lock UX, and responsive design.

AI Integration: Embedded Voiceflow conversational AI for intelligent financial coaching with contextual advice.

Key Features: Financial crisis statistics, interactive Baby Steps showcase, educational video content, and guided user experience with accessibility considerations.

Challenges we ran into

Scroll Management: Implementing complex scroll-lock functionality that creates a guided experience while detecting genuine user interaction vs. programmatic scrolling and maintaining accessibility.

AI Integration: Configuring Voiceflow to provide accurate financial advice aligned with Ramsey's methodology and handling dynamic script loading for the embedded chat widget.

User-centric design with intuitive guided navigation
Comprehensive financial statistics highlighting real American challenges
