I Built a $2/Month AI Assistant (50% Goes to Animal Rescue)

The Problem

AI assistants cost $20/month. For millions, that is a luxury.

What I Built

LOUIE - an AI life assistant for $2/month.

  • Budget and expense tracking
  • Smart reminders
  • Health logging
  • Unlimited AI chat

Powered by Claude (Anthropic). Same intelligence, fraction of the price.

The 50/50 Mission

50% of every dollar goes to animal rescue.

This started when I rescued a Saint Bernard named Louie who had been neglected for 2 years. He taught me that everyone deserves a second chance.

Now every LOUIE subscriber helps give animals that second chance.

The Stack

  • Node.js + Express
  • Claude API (Anthropic)
  • Stripe
  • SQLite
  • DigitalOcean

Try It

simplylouie.com

7-day free trial, then $2/month. Cancel anytime.


Not everything needs to cost $20/month.
