Clara Featured on BBC Tees Radio
James McGee was interviewed by BBC Tees Radio about building Clara and a fintech startup in the North East of England.
James McGee, 19-year-old founder of JEMA Software Ltd, was recently interviewed by BBC Tees Radio about Clara and what it means to build a fintech startup in the North East of England.
The interview covered the journey of building Clara from scratch, the problem it solves for people who want clearer everyday money decisions, and what is next for the business. Clara is designed for users who want to understand spending, subscriptions, budget categories, and money patterns without needing a complicated spreadsheet.
For a regional startup, local BBC coverage matters because it puts the story in front of the community where the company is being built. Clara is set to launch in September 2026, with updates published at getclara.co.uk.
