Actuary Launches Math App with no App Experience
I realised my mental math was getting worse.
I’m an actuary.
I work in Excel all day.
One day I caught myself using a calculator for 15% of 80.
That was my wake-up call.
I went looking for an app to train my brain again…
and everything I found was either made for kids or drowning in gamification.
I didn’t want a game.
I wanted something simple and fast I could use daily — like Duolingo, but for mental math.
So I built it myself. Nights and weekends later, my first app Numerlo is live 🚀
It’s a 60-second daily mental math sprint designed for professionals who want to stay sharp.
The feature I’m most excited about is the Numerlo Index — a chess-style rating for your brain that goes up as you train and drops if you stop.
Built solo. First app. Would love feedback ❤️
What score do you get in 60 seconds?
