OpenAI Adds Personal Finance Tools to ChatGPT Pro
OpenAI has launched personal finance tools for ChatGPT Pro subscribers in the US, allowing users to connect bank and investment accounts from more than 12,000 financial institutions. The integration works through Plaid, a financial data platform, and covers accounts at Chase, Fidelity, Robinhood, and Capital One.
Once connected, users can view a dashboard showing portfolio performance, spending patterns, subscriptions, and upcoming payments. They can ask ChatGPT questions about recent spending changes, investment decisions, or long-term financial goals like buying a home.
The move follows OpenAI's acquisition of Hiro, a personal finance startup, last month. The new tools run on GPT-5.5, OpenAI's latest reasoning model. OpenAI said more than 200 million users already ask financial questions through ChatGPT each month.
Support for Intuit is planned, which would add tax-impact analysis and credit assessments. The tools are available on web and iOS for Pro subscribers. Rollout to Plus users depends on early feedback.
Product Consolidation Under Brockman
The finance launch coincides with a significant internal restructuring. Co-founder Greg Brockman has taken formal control of product strategy while CEO Fidji Simo remains on medical leave.
Brockman plans to merge ChatGPT and coding agent Codex into a single platform. He is consolidating product teams around what he called an "agentic future" spanning consumer and enterprise markets.
The reorganization reflects CEO Sam Altman's late 2025 directive to focus on ChatGPT's core experience. OpenAI has already shed peripheral projects, including video generator Sora.
For finance professionals, the integration of account data into AI for Finance tools marks a shift toward AI-assisted financial management at the consumer level. The consolidation of ChatGPT and Codex suggests OpenAI is positioning itself to serve both individual users and enterprise clients with unified AI agents.
