About Gauss
Gauss is building an AI credit agent that automatically lowers the cost of consumers’ debt. The product connects to a user’s credit profile, continuously monitors balances and available offers, and executes refinances or restructurings when it can materially improve terms. For credit card debt, Gauss can track and automatically pay off any expensive balance on connected cards from an instantly originated line of credit, saving users thousands of dollars on interest charges and helping them pay off faster.
