ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Sakia

Sakia is a computer program that helps people keep track of their money. Just like when you find a shiny penny on the ground and you put it in your pocket, adults get money too! They use that money to buy things they need, like groceries or a new shirt. But sometimes it's hard to remember how much money they have or where it all went. That's where Sakia comes in!

Think of Sakia like a big, magical piggy bank. Instead of putting real coins in it, grown-ups can type in how much money they got and where they spent it. Sakia keeps track of all the numbers so adults can see how much money they have left and what they've spent it on.

But Sakia is not just any piggy bank – it's a special kind called a digital piggy bank. This means that Sakia lives inside a computer or a phone instead of in a real world piggy bank. When grown-ups use Sakia, they can see their money on a screen instead of touching it with their hands. It's like playing a game but for money!

The best part about Sakia is that it can help grown-ups make smart choices with their money. Say someone has $20 in their Sakia and they want to buy a new toy. Sakia can show them that if they buy that toy, they won't have any money left for something they might need later, like food or gas for their car. So, they might decide not to buy the toy and save their money for something more important.

So, that's what Sakia does – it helps grown-ups keep track of their money, make smart choices, and feel confident about their finances. Just like you can count your shiny pennies in your pocket, grown-ups can count their money in their Sakia and feel happy and safe knowing where it all went.
