I'm curious how this compares to SoFi's Money program. SoFi manages student loans and now they are moving into cash management. It seems that this is an area new companies feel is ripe for disruption.

Well, SoFi Money hasn't launched yet, so the product doesn't exist. The difference is SoFi Money claims to plan to offer 1% less interest than Robinhood claims to offer, also SoFi Money claims to plan to be FDIC insured.
