Claude Gets Personal Finance—Anthony Pompliano Accuses Anthropic of Copying His Startup
Summary
Anthropic launched Personal Finance, a beta feature for U.S. subscribers on its Pro, Max and Ultra plans. Through Plaid, users can grant read-only access to bank and credit card data, allowing Claude to summarize spending, flag fees, explain interest and track bills. Anthropic says these conversations are not used to train its models, but warns that balances may be delayed and AI-generated figures should be verified. Investor Anthony Pompliano accused Anthropic of seeking confidential information from his competing startup, Silvia, before the launch; his claims are unverified. ChatGPT already offers similar bank connections, and Anthropic says it may pursue partnerships with financial firms.
