About OpenBudget
OpenBudget
OpenBudget lets you connect bank accounts (the page states support for 10,000+ banks and cards via Plaid) and makes your transactions, balances, and spending available to Claude, ChatGPT, Google Sheets, and Excel. Transactions are sorted into 100+ categories. The page describes connecting an AI through the OpenBudget connector to ask about spending, budgets, and trends, syncing transactions into spreadsheets automatically, tracking investments and assets, and tracking cards and loans with balances, APRs, due dates, and payoff options. It also describes using ChatGPT or Claude scheduled tasks with OpenBudget as the data source for recurring summaries and bill checks. The page states that bank credentials stay with Plaid, OpenBudget cannot move money, and offers a 7-day free trial.
