Claude Personal Finance: read-only answers about your money
Claude can now answer questions about balances, spending, and bills from linked US bank and card accounts via Plaid — read-only, in beta for Pro, Max, and Ultra.
Why it matters
Puts a frontier assistant directly on two years of transaction history with a published six-item data list and no ads or sponsored recommendations, six months after ChatGPT Finances.
What you could build with it
A freelance finance coach could use the read-only answers to build a weekly spending digest for clients, flagging duplicate charges and rising bills without ever touching their money.
Does it hold up?
Too early to judge — a gradual US-only beta that started Nov 5, and Anthropic itself warns totals can mislead, so figures need checking against the bank.
