Hardbacon was a Montreal-based fintech startup founded in 2017, focused on personal finance management tools and financial product comparisons. The company offered a free budgeting app that allowed users to track spending, manage investments, and receive personalized financial recommendations. It also provided tools for comparing credit cards, insurance policies, mortgages, and loans, along with various financial calculators for retirement, debt repayment, and more.

Hardbacon targeted retail consumers looking to optimize their personal finances, including budget-conscious individuals and retail investors. The company produced educational content, offering articles and guides on personal finance strategies. Despite facing challenges that led to its closure in August 2024, there was a potential revival announced in September 2024 under new ownership by Plutera Capital, although its operational status remains uncertain.
