Meet UpScore
Norwegian fintech startup
UpScore’s vision is to give you better control over your finances! But how can you improve it if you do not know the criteria you are judged on? In fact, you have always had a financial score associated with you as a person, even though you may not have been aware of it. UpScore makes this kind of information visible to you! That’s your data, isn’t it? In addition, they will tell you what draws your score up and down and how to take advantage of it.
UpScore is an automatic AI-powered advisor that, based on various sources, calculates credit score and shows information about contributing factors. Then it uses the information to give advice on how to improve the score and offer better financial deals than you currently have.
UpScore is a growing portal for finding out your financial score. We helped build all functionalities from user accounts to drawing charts and displaying bank offers.
So how does it work? Users log in with their Altinn accounts which allows UpScore to take their tax data and calculate the result. In the panel, they can see their information presented on various graphs. But that’s not all – you can also see offers from various banks based on your score with such features as calculators and individual forms. We’re also working on adding logging in via social media accounts like Linkedin, Facebook, etc
We decided to use ReactJS and NodeJS to build the application and we set it up with Firebase. To make the site easy to manage, we integrated Storyblok, a headless CMS with a visual editor. We also used Yarn and Cypress for automated testing and Sentry.io for site diagnostics.
