Anthropic’s new Personal Finance feature connects Claude to your bank account to help with your money

Anthropic has introduced a new Personal Finance feature that connects Claude, its language model, to your bank account. This allows you to ask Claude questions about your finances without it being able to make any transactions or changes. The feature can summarize your spending by category, helping you understand where your money is going.

For instance, if you ask Claude "Where did my money go this month?", it will calculate your total spending, showing that it was $4,309.37, with the majority spent on rent and utilities, and $1,024.51 on food and drink. Claude can also detect unusual transactions, like surprise bills or charges that appear twice. However, it's important to note that Claude can only view your bank data, not make any transactions itself or train the model using your financial information. This feature is set to roll out this week in the US for users on the Pro, Max, or Ultra plans.
