01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
EasyPlan was a personal-finance savings app founded by Manisha Pandita and Sanjay Gandhi and part of Y Combinator's 2020 batch. Aimed at young professionals, it helped users save money regularly in a simple, low-risk way and invest in mutual funds — 'save for the things you love' — starting with as little as Rs. 100. The app claimed over 250,000 users.
