ChatGPT Will Now Dole Out Finance Tips if You Connect Your Bank Account. I Won’t.
The preview lets Pro subscribers connect accounts through Plaid and get budgeting, spending and portfolio analysis, as OpenAI seeks feedback before wider rollout.
- Today, OpenAI launched a personal finance preview for United States Pro ChatGPT subscribers, allowing them to connect bank accounts via Plaid for personalized budgeting and investment guidance.
- This feature follows OpenAI's acquisition of the startup Hiro in April, as the company seeks to serve more than 200 million users already asking ChatGPT financial questions monthly.

- OpenAI promises users control over their data, including the ability to disconnect accounts or delete financial memories at any time, though the company has up to 30 days to process deletions.
- While currently limited to Pro ChatGPT subscribers, OpenAI plans to refine the experience based on early feedback before expanding to ChatGPT Plus users and integrating Intuit support soon.
