PocketPinch
“Know before you buy.”
Pocket Pinch is the first product out of Ntafo Studios: a purchase-affordability companion for iOS. Connect one bank account, and instead of another dashboard to maintain, you get a single honest number — 0 to 100 — the moment you’re standing in front of something you might buy.
Three steps. One honest answer.
01
Ask
Type it, snap a photo, or drop in a link — however you noticed the thing you want.
02
We check
Real balance, upcoming bills, and spending patterns, pulled straight from the accounts you've linked.
03
Get your score
A 0–100 verdict with the reasoning behind it, in plain language. No spreadsheets, no black box.
The score
One number. A clear verdict.
Every purchase checked lands in one of four bands, color-coded, so you know at a glance whether to go for it or wait.
Why it’s different
Built to answer one question, well.
- 01
Not a budgeting app
One honest answer when it matters, not another dashboard to maintain.
- 02
Knows what's coming
Upcoming bills are baked into every score, not just today's balance.
- 03
Ask any way
Text it, snap it, or paste a link — whatever's fastest in the moment.
- 04
Shows its work
Every score breaks down into the real numbers behind it. No black box.
