Redefining Financial Planning Through Data Science
Our research-driven approach to annual budgeting combines behavioral economics with predictive analytics to create more accurate financial forecasts
The halyraquonex Methodology
We've spent six years developing what we call "Contextual Budget Modeling" – a system that factors in psychological spending patterns alongside traditional financial metrics. This isn't your typical budgeting software.
-
Behavioral Pattern Recognition
Our algorithms analyze spending habits during different life phases, seasonal changes, and economic conditions. We've found that most budgeting failures happen because people don't account for their actual behavior patterns.
-
Scenario-Based Forecasting
Instead of creating one annual budget, we generate multiple scenarios based on different life events. Job changes, family additions, or economic shifts all trigger automatic budget recalibrations.
-
Adaptive Learning System
The platform learns from your actual spending versus planned budgets, continuously improving its predictions. After three months, our accuracy rates typically exceed 87% for major expense categories.

"Traditional budgeting assumes people are rational actors. Our research proves they're not – and that's exactly what makes our approach work."
Why We Built Something Different
Back in 2019, Cordelia was working as a behavioral economist when she noticed something peculiar. People could create beautiful budgets but consistently failed to stick to them. The problem wasn't willpower – it was that most budgeting tools treated humans like spreadsheets.
So we started from scratch. Instead of asking "How much should you spend?", we asked "How do you actually spend?" We analyzed spending patterns across different demographics, life stages, and economic conditions. The results were fascinating.
Our Key Discovery
People's spending follows predictable patterns that correlate more strongly with psychological factors than income levels. A £50,000 earner might have more consistent savings habits than someone earning £80,000, depending on their relationship with money formed in childhood.
This insight led to our core innovation: budgets that adapt to human psychology rather than fighting against it. We're not trying to change how people think about money – we're working with their existing mental models to create more realistic financial plans.
Our research continues today. We're currently studying how remote work has shifted household budgeting patterns and developing new models for the gig economy. The financial landscape keeps evolving, and our methodology evolves with it.
