For the first time in years, I don't panic on payday. Shepherd handles my rent, student loans, and savings before I even open the app. It just works.

I was skeptical about automation, but the simulation mode let me see exactly what would happen before I agreed to anything. That transparency sold me immediately.

My T-Bills are earning over 5% while my bills are always paid on time. I didn't think something this powerful could also be this simple to use.

Answers to common questions

Does Shepherd hold my money?+
No. Shepherd never holds user funds as a bank. Your money stays in your own linked bank and IBKR brokerage accounts. We orchestrate movement; you retain ownership.
How does the waterfall engine work?+
When funds arrive, our engine runs a priority-ordered allocation: liabilities are reserved first, then your safety buffer is topped up, and any remaining surplus is swept into investments — all automatically.
Is my personal data secure?+
All PII is encrypted in transit and at rest. SSN and government ID images are strictly access-controlled and never displayed after onboarding. We follow SOC 2 controls and 7-year data retention requirements.
Can I pause automation at any time?+
Absolutely. You can pause automation globally or per-account instantly via the app. You retain full manual override ability at all times — Shepherd always puts you in control.
What investments does Shepherd use?+
Shepherd only allocates to conservative, low-risk products: U.S. Treasury Bills and FDIC-insured Certificates of Deposit, all held in your personal IBKR brokerage account.
Is there a fee to use Shepherd?+
Pricing details will be available at launch. Early access registrants will receive exclusive pricing. We're committed to keeping fees transparent and aligned with the value we deliver.
