What is Ariadne?

A phone app for students preparing for finance recruiting. It puts technical and behavioural practice, a plan with weekly to-dos, news and deal briefings for the firms you track, a networking log and a recruiting calendar in one place.

Who is it for?

University students recruiting for internships and graduate roles in finance, from London and the rest of Europe to New York and Hong Kong. You need to be at least 16.

Which tracks does it cover?

Six: Investment Banking, Sales & Trading, Private Equity, Asset Management, Hedge Funds and Quant Trading. You pick a main track and can add a second one, and change them later in Settings.

Which firms?

114 firms, from bulge brackets and elite boutiques to private equity, hedge funds, asset managers and quant trading firms. The full list is on Features. Ariadne is not affiliated with the firms named.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. Free tracks 3 firms, includes 30 questions a month and 5 networking contacts, and shows firm news after 24 hours. The story bank, mental math and spaced review are on every plan. Compare plans.

How do I pay, and how do I cancel?

Subscriptions are bought in the app through the App Store or Google Play, and renew until you cancel. Cancel any time in your App Store or Google Play subscription settings; your plan stays until the end of the period you paid for.

What happens to my data?

Your account data is stored in the EU (Ireland). We do not sell it, show ads or use it to train AI models, and deleting your account in the app deletes it. The Privacy Policy has the details, including the few providers we use.

Is it on iPhone and Android?

Both. Ariadne is coming to the App Store and Google Play; Get Started shows when it is live. A web version will follow later, with no date yet.

Does Ariadne guarantee an offer?

No. It is a study and organisation tool: it helps you prepare and keep track, but interviews and offers depend on you and on the firms.

Which languages?

English for now.
