The collection agencies violate laws as a standard practice and most people don't understand their rights or have the tools to advocate for themselves. The version of BUKIT now is a minimal viable product but with time I plan on adding

The service is meant to help both sides- the creditors and the people in debt, but the collection agencies are just guns for hire and VERY abusive. So my goal is to try and take them out, but it is ultimately to everyone's benefit.

Spooky23 is also right because we've done a lot of research and most people in debt are 25-44 working, educated, and upwardly mobile (if they weren't being dragged down by debt) usually they got into debt because of job loss or me

IMO, they are going to be screwed anyway. There are MUCH better systems of measuring people's credit worthiness. I looking forward to future tech slaying them completely. Also, if I am able to fully execute the vision for BUKIT. It
