Cofori.
A warmer way for shared households to organise bills, plans and everyday life.
The starting point
Shared homes need more than another spreadsheet.
Cofori began with a real household problem: bills were split between housemates, payments moved through one person’s account, due dates needed remembering and the status of every share had to remain obvious.
I turned that need into a complete product direction—combining household finance, planning and conversation in a system designed to feel human rather than administrative.

The system
Four connected parts. One household view.
Shared bills
A clear monthly view of totals, individual splits, payment progress and overdue items.
Plans together
Household events, responses and shared costs connected in one simple flow.
House chat
Messaging, photo sharing, bill requests, reactions and household activity in context.
Friendly guidance
Pockets turns reminders and financial states into clear, approachable prompts.
Character-led experience
Meet Pockets—the personality inside the product.
Pockets is not decoration. The mascot helps translate bill states, reminders and household progress into messages people can understand at a glance. Distinct poses and expressions give overdue, pending and completed moments their own emotional tone, while seasonal styling keeps the product lively without changing what the information means.
