Manage your spending to support racial justice, gender equality, climate progress, and other causes
Help Launch the Era of Values-Based Banking and Shopping
A message from the ecountabl team
If you aren’t familiar with ecountabl, we’re a new kind of tech company with a simple but powerful purpose: To connect people with companies that share their values. Please explore our campaign to learn how our iPhone app links personal values to personal spending and helps you support the causes you care most about whenever you make a purchase.
Over the past several years we’ve invested our savings and sacrificed time with our families to build ecountabl from a great idea into an incredible company. This summer we reached a major milestone, debuting ecountabl in the App Store’s beta testing program.
Now we need your help. Your donation will enable us to launch ecountabl to the American public. Contributors will receive early access to the ecountabl iPhone app (or access to the Android app when it’s available), public recognition, and other special perks. Please use the social media tools at the top of the page to share our campaign with others.
We built this company to make a difference. With your support we can bring ecountabl to life and revolutionize the banking and shopping experience for millions of people, starting with you. Thanks so much, and we hope you’ll join us on this remarkable journey.

Thanks from the CEO
When Jason Hartke and I met for breakfast a few blocks from the White House in 2017 to brainstorm the ideas that would become ecountabl, we didn’t know that we had just started an incredible journey that would reshape how people live up to their values when they bank and shop. That journey has included our wonderful (and patient!) families; remarkable co-founders, team members and advisors; and amazing partners like Gender Fair, JUST Capital, and CSRHub. Now we hope it includes you, too.
Your support matters. First, it will help us to complete a critical product development period (familiar to many early-stage companies) where we have costs but no revenue yet. Second, it will enable us to launch ecountabl to the American public in early 2021, empowering millions of people to link their spending with their values and create personal impact. Every donation brings us closer to achieving that extraordinary goal. If you can’t donate, you can still help by sharing our campaign using the social media tools at the top of the page.
You can see more about us at www.ecountabl.com, including our founding story and my 2020 Letter to Prospective Investors describing the next-generation business tools we’re building to help companies and their customers improve society together.
So much has happened since that morning more than three years ago and we’re closer than ever to bringing ecountabl to life. On behalf of the whole team: Thanks so much for your generosity and support, and I hope to see you out there on this amazing journey.
