Why it worked

The video effectively highlights a common pain point for investors (managing cross-border accounts) and presents a clear, AI-powered solution (Emergent) that addresses this problem. The partnership with Kevin O'Leary and the mention of a $100K prize pool create strong incentives for engagement.

Summary

The creator showcases Emergent, an AI tool that builds custom investing dashboards, as their entry into the "Builder Fest" competition partnered with Kevin O'Leary. They demonstrate how Emergent can create a cross-border investing dashboard for both Canadian and US accounts, highlighting its ability to track watchlists, stock rankings, and DCA plans in real-time.

Product placement

Emergent: ACTS - it is an AI tool that builds custom dashboards for cross-border investing. Removing it would change what happens in the video. Kevin O'Leary: APPEARS - he is featured in promotional material for the Builder Fest. Removing him would not change what happens in the video.

Transcript

I'm building a custom app with Emergent for Builder's Fest, partnered with Kevin O'Leary. They're giving away $100,000 to 100 builders. So here's what I'm building. As an investor, every smart tool feels built for one side. US tools ignore TFSA & RRSP. Canadian tools don't support US Brokerage accounts. The Canadian setup gets messy the second you add a US brokerage account. I got tired of waiting for the perfect tool, so I used Emergent. Build me a cross-border investing dashboard for Canadian and US investors. Include views for: TFSA, RRSP, FHSA, taxable and US brokerage accounts with watch lists, stock ranking, and DCA plan tracking. Emergent takes that one paragraph and turns it into a real product. Front and back end built together and deployed in one click. Now I've got a live dual market investing tool. Canadian and US account views in one place, with the tools that I actually use. Watch list ETFs and US accounts move in real time. Add rules to positions and track everything in one dashboard. Most people keep asking for the perfect investing tool. I'd rather build it. This is my entry for Builder Fest. Join the fest, build it, publish it, and submit it for your chance at the $100,000 prize pool. Comment "BUILD" or click the link in my bio to enter!
