Aboalarm and Hi Emma Win the BNP Paribas International Hackathon!

Last weekend, startups Hi Emma and Aboalarm took home the grand prize at the BNP Paribas International Hackathon that was held right here, in betahaus . Hi Emma is a finance chatbot that helps users who want to do their banking in a hassle free way by providing a humanized interface to banking applications. For the hackathon, they created an intelligent messenger that gives customers pro-active banking suggestions.

"We had an inspiring and intensive weekend, met exciting people and had a great knowledge exchange."

Aboalarm is a leading mobile & web-based contract management service in Germany, enabling users to easily cancel contracts and keep the perfect overview of all contracts (insurances, cable, electricity, gas, etc). For the hackathon, the Aboalarm team created a bank-account based contract management tool that categorizes transactions and recognizes recurring payments such as rent.

 "The Aboalarm team really enjoyed the positive atmosphere among the participating teams and we’re looking forward to working closely with Consorsbank in order to make our service as valuable as possible for our customers”
