Anthropic has introduced a Personal Finance feature in its AI assistant Claude, allowing US subscribers to securely connect and analyze their financial data starting today.
The Personal Finance feature is designed to simplify financial management by enabling users to securely connect their bank and card accounts and ask natural-language questions about their finances.
Claude can break expenses into categories, compare spending across months, flag duplicate charges or creeping subscription costs, and identify upcoming bills.
According to Anthropic, the feature is read-only and cannot take financial actions, such as transferring money or managing accounts.
Users can connect their accounts through Claude’s sidebar, where they can start asking questions about their finances.
Claude can access information such as account names and types, balances, credit limits, and transaction history covering up to two years.
The company emphasizes that the feature is read-only and cannot make investment advice or financial transactions.
Anthropic says Claude gives answers in everyday language and can explain unfamiliar financial terms.
Claude can make mistakes in its answers, so users are advised to ask which transactions are behind a number and check important figures with their bank.
The Personal Finance feature is rolling out in the US to paid subscribers on Claude Pro, Max, and Ultra plans.
Anthropic has not announced a separate Personal Finance add-on fee.
The company says the feature is designed to help users keep track of their money without the need to open multiple banking apps and do the math themselves.
