About Build Your Credit

Tired of credit monitoring services that treat you like a product to be sold? Fed up with apps that promise to help your credit but really just want to push you toward their affiliate partners?

Yeah, we were too. That's why we built something different.

What Makes Us Different? Everything.

We don't sell your data. While other platforms are busy mining your personal information to sell to the highest bidder, we're focused on one thing: helping you build better credit.

No ads, no data-driven product recommendations. We don't scan your profile to push credit cards or loans based on what earns us the highest commission. Our advice is based on what's good for YOU, not what makes us money.

Complete privacy. Your financial information stays private. We're not scanning your bank accounts, tracking your spending, or building profiles to sell to marketers. Your business is your business.

The Credit Report Analysis You've Been Waiting For

Here's something no other platform offers: we can parse and analyze credit reports from all three major bureaus - Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion.

Upload your credit report, and we'll break down exactly what's helping and hurting your score. No guesswork, no generic advice - just personalized insights based on YOUR credit profile.

Completely hassle-free. No complicated sign-ups, no monthly fees, no hidden catches. Upload your report, get your analysis, take action.

100% ad-free experience. When you're trying to understand your credit, the last thing you need is distracting ads for credit cards you probably shouldn't apply for anyway.

Why We Built This Platform

The credit industry is broken. Companies make money by keeping you confused, pushing products you don't need, and selling your personal data to anyone willing to pay.

We believe you deserve better. You deserve:

  • Expert advice based on consumer credit expertise and federal regulations
  • Privacy protection - your data shouldn't be for sale
  • Real tools that solve problems
  • Evidence-based information with proper citations and sources

How We're Different from the Competition

Credit Karma: Shows you scores lenders don't use, pushes affiliate products, mines your data for profit.

Experian/Equifax/TransUnion: Want to sell you monitoring services and push their own products.

Credit repair companies: Often use questionable tactics and charge monthly fees for things you can do yourself.

Build Your Credit: Gives you the tools and knowledge to improve your credit yourself, privately, without the sales pitch.

Read our detailed analysis of common credit myths to understand what really affects your credit score.
