ChatGPT Pro: Bank-Linked Finance Tools for US Users

OpenAI has introduced new personal finance tools within ChatGPT for its US Pro users. These tools allow users to link their bank accounts and gain quick insights into their spending, investments, and financial goals. For example, you can ask questions like "Have my expenses increased recently?" or "Can I afford to buy a house in five years?" What's interesting is that these tools use Plaid to securely connect with over 12,000 financial institutions, including Chase, Robinhood, and Capital One. A personalized dashboard will show you trends and upcoming payments. You can disconnect accounts at any time, and all synced data is deleted within 30 days. To access this, head to the "Finances" section in ChatGPT or type "@Finances, connect my accounts" on the web or iOS. OpenAI plans to expand availability after gathering feedback. This development could change how many users manage their daily finances.
