Plaid linked budget updates land in his and his wife's inbox three times a week
He built a workflow that connects to their bank accounts and credit cards through Plaid and emails him and his wife a budget update three times a week, showing how they are tracking against the budget, with spending analysis and suggestions for cheaper alternatives.
How it works
- Accounts linked through Plaid
- Workflow pulls spending
- Compares it with the budget
- Writes up analysis and cheaper alternatives
- Emails both of them three times a week
Why it’s worth knowing
Both partners get the same numbers at the same time, so the budget stops being one person's job.
