How it works

It uses a browser, the way you would.

That is the whole trick. Mind My Money is a Mac app that points an AI at a real Chrome window and has it go through your money the way you would if you had the evening: download the transactions, name them, sort them, find the charges you forgot about. Except you are not the one doing it.

Three moves, and you can see the month.

01
You sign in, it downloads

Your bank, your card, the accounts the money goes through. A real browser on your computer, on a profile kept just for this. You sign in yourself, and it helps you download the transactions.

02
It names every transaction

Including the ones your bank only calls Klarna or Paytrail. It works out the shop from your own receipts, messages and photos, looking only at the few days around each payment, and sorts the lot so you can see the month.

03
It asks you the rest

Whether to keep something, never whether it is there: the rows already say that. Before it cancels, changes or sends anything, it checks with you.

Which is why it works with everything: there is no integration anywhere in it. If you can reach your bank in a browser, so can Mind My Money. There is no connector to wait for, and no bank that has to support us first.

See a month go past.

Below is one month, step by step. It is quicker to look than to read.

You sign in to your bank yourself. In a browser window it opens on your computer, on a profile of its own. It helps you download the transactions, and your everyday browser is never involved.

It goes through every one of them. Every transaction named, the ones your bank only calls Klarna or Paytrail included, and sorted into what the money went on.

Then it shows you the month. What went where, what changed since last month, what was in the shopping. It says what things cost and what is surprising, and stops there.

It works out the shop behind the payment rails from your own trail. A receipt email, a screenshot, a message from the shop, looked for only in the few days around that one payment. Each source is asked for when it is first needed, not at first launch.

Everything reaches your phone. When it needs you to sign in or to decide something and you are not at the computer, the question comes to you as a card. If you are not there, it waits.

Together you look for waste. It finds the recurring charges and asks you, one by one, whether to keep them. It never tells you what to do with your money.

Before it changes, cancels or sends anything, it checks with you. When it is done you get the report and the number: what it saved you, checked against your own statements.

Your part is small, and it is the part that should be.

It runs in the background over days, not in one sitting. It stops when it reaches something only a person can settle, waits however long you take, and picks up where it left off.

Most of what it asks is not judgment at all — it is a login it cannot pass on your behalf, because strong authentication is yours to approve. That is a feature, not a shortcoming.

You approve the logins

It gets as far as the strong-authentication step and stops with the tab on the right page. Ten seconds, not ten minutes working out where it got to.

You say what to keep

Whether the gym stays, whether that streaming service is still watched. It asks rather than guessing, because only you know what is used and what is forgotten.

You see it before it happens

Mind My Money does not cancel, switch or send anything you have not seen. It shows you exactly what it is about to do and waits.

And it gets shorter

Every correction is kept and applied next month. The first month teaches it your banks and your shops; the second is the one worth having.

The things people ask at this point.

Does my bank have to support it?

No. There is no bank feed and no connector. It uses the same web bank you already sign in to, in a browser on your own computer, so any bank you can reach that way works.

What if it cannot get into something?

Some sites cannot be automated, and that is expected rather than broken. It tells you which, you download that statement yourself and drop it in the folder, and it carries on from there.

Do I have to sit and watch it?

No — that is the point. Your Mac does need to be awake and online for it to make progress; it cannot work with the lid shut. Questions come to you as cards, and to your phone if you want them there.

Is it going to invent numbers?

It is built not to, fairly aggressively: it counts its rows against your statements, only calls a shop identified when the amount adds up, and leaves anything unresolved marked as unknown instead of guessing. What it says it saved is checked against your own statements, and you can check it too.

I have tried AI things that did not work.

Usually because you were handed a general tool and left to build the workflow yourself. This is one job with the workflow already built — including the awkward parts, which are the two sections below.

Can’t I just use Claude Code for this?

Yes, and if you already live in a terminal, go ahead. That is how the first run on our own accounts was done. Mind My Money is that workflow with the sharp edges taken off: the browser automation set up for you, somewhere to steer it mid-run, questions that find you on your phone, and a report you can read. It exists so people who are not versed in Claude Code can still get the benefit.

What does it cost?

Whatever you decide, including nothing — there is a slider. The AI is your own arrangement and is the real cost: a Claude subscription.

What it needs from your computer.

Claude Code. The app installs and configures it with you on first launch. It takes a few minutes, it involves a terminal, and it is the single step where people get stuck, so we'd rather say it here than let you find out halfway through.

Google Chrome. Mind My Money opens its own Chrome window on a separate profile kept just for this — not your everyday browsing. You sign into your bank in there once, and that session stays put.

A computer that stays awake. The work happens on your machine, in a browser window on it. It progresses whenever the lid is open, not while it's shut.

The model is plumbing, not the product. When something local or open is good enough to do this work, Mind My Money will use it and this section gets shorter.

Where everything lives
Statements, the named transactions and the report sit in a folder you chose. There is no Mind My Money cloud holding your money data.
Plain markdown and real files — you can open, edit and version them yourself, and the app copes if you do.
We never ask for a banking password. Logins happen in your browser, by you.
Reading receipts and screenshots, and transcribing your voice, happen on your computer.
Photos, messages and browsing history are each asked for when a payment needs them, and it looks only at the few days around that payment.
iPhone sync, if you use it, goes through your own iCloud.

The agent step that reasons about your spending does go to a model. Which one, and under whose agreement, is your choice: your own Anthropic subscription today, or at-cost credits through us once that is built.

Read this one properly

Is it safe to let this near your bank?

The honest answer is: it is as safe as you decide to make it, and the decision is genuinely yours. The reason Mind My Money works with everything is that it drives a real browser using sessions you signed into — in a Chrome profile of its own, apart from your everyday one. That is real power, and power of that kind deserves plain language rather than reassurance.

While a session is open, the agent can read what you can read and click what you can click. It is instructed to fetch statements and to act only on what you approve, but the capability is there, so treat it like handing your unlocked laptop to a very fast, very literal assistant.

Which is why you get to draw the line yourself. Give it everything, or keep your bank to yourself and hand it only the statements you download. It works either way, and the second option still removes most of the work.

Risk · prompt poisoning
Web pages and emails can try to give it instructions.

An agent that reads your inbox and browses shop and bank sites is reading text written by other people. Text can contain instructions aimed at the agent rather than at you — hidden in an email, a PDF, or a page. Mind My Money is scoped to reduce this, but no one in this industry has solved it, and anyone claiming otherwise is selling you something.

Risk · the 2FA reflex
Never approve a prompt you weren't expecting.

This is the one that matters most. Because Mind My Money legitimately asks you to approve bank logins, you will get used to tapping approve. Read every prompt. If it names an amount, a payee, or an action you did not ask for, reject it and stop the run. A strong-authentication prompt is a decision, not a formality.

Risk · it can be wrong
It is a report, not advice.

It counts, it flags its gaps, it marks what it could not name, and it can still mis-read a receipt or name the wrong shop. Everything it produces is for you to check. Nothing here is financial, tax or legal advice.

What we recommend
1Only let it do what you're comfortable with. This is the real answer, and it's entirely yours to set. If handing it your bank feels wrong, don't — log in and download the CSV yourself, drop it in the folder, and let the agent handle the tedious half instead: the naming, the sorting, the report, the charges to look at. That is still most of the work.
2Watch it, at least at first. The run view shows every step in readable language. Keep it visible while it is working on a bank, and read the log occasionally rather than never.
3It already runs in its own Chrome profile — separate from your everyday browsing, so it can only reach accounts you signed into inside it. Sign in there to as few as you're comfortable with; everything else is out of reach entirely, and that's the cheapest, most effective control you have.
4Prefer read-only where your bank offers it. Many banks issue a viewer-level login or a read-only user. If yours does, use that one here.
5Don't leave it running unattended on accounts that can move money, and check your statements as you always would.
6Stop it if anything looks odd. Quitting the app ends the session. Nothing is lost; a month survives being interrupted and picks up later.
What is genuinely not a risk
We never receive, store or transmit a banking credential. You type them; they stay in your browser.
There is no Mind My Money server holding your transactions. The only copy of your folder outside your computer is whatever your own backup keeps.
Your photos, messages and browsing history are only read with your permission, one payment at a time, never swept.
Nobody at Augmented Mind AB can see your session, your screen or your files.
Where responsibility sits

Mind My Money runs on your computer, under your account, in a browser you signed into, at your instruction. You remain responsible for your own accounts, your own approvals and your own decisions — including anything the agent does with a session you authorised, and anything you approve when prompted.

The software is provided as-is, without warranty, and Augmented Mind AB accepts no liability for financial loss, a wrong cancellation, missed deadlines or unauthorised transactions arising from its use. It is not financial, tax or legal advice. If that trade isn't one you want to make, this isn't the right tool for you — and we'd rather say so here than after you've bought it.

Let it have a look at your spending.

Ten minutes, and you will know where the money goes. If it finds nothing to cancel, it will say so.
