Where to find your assistant
Open the Assistant on either platform.On the web - the assistant is available two ways:
- As a docked side panel alongside every app page (Home, Spending, Cash Flow, and so on), so you can ask a question without leaving the page you’re on. Collapse it from its header; expand it back when you need it.
- As a full-page view, reached from Assistant in the sidebar, the Assistant tab on a phone, or the side panel’s header.
What your assistant can do
- Answer financial questions - “How much did I spend on groceries last month?”, “What’s my net worth?”, “Show me my biggest expenses this quarter.”
- Generate visualizations - bar, pie, line, or table charts rendered directly in the conversation.
- Summarize your finances - quick recaps of spending, income, or cash flow over a time range.
- Spot patterns - ask about trends, unusual charges, or category breakdowns.
- Stay in context - the assistant remembers what you’ve asked earlier in the same conversation.
Edit transactions from chat
You can also ask the assistant to update how a transaction is labeled. It confirms before making bulk changes.- Change a transaction’s category - “Move my last Amazon charge to Groceries”
- Rename a merchant - “Rename SBUX to Starbucks”
- Hide from spending totals - “Hide this refund from my totals”
- Flag as recurring - “Mark my monthly HelloFresh charge as a subscription”
- Stop treating as recurring - “HelloFresh isn’t a subscription anymore, don’t track it as recurring” - the merchant drops off your Recurring page
- Flag as an internal transfer - “This is a transfer between my accounts, not spending”
- Add or clear a note - “Add the note ‘work trip’ to my Delta charge”, “Clear the note on that charge”
Text and voice only
You write to the assistant in text. On iOS you can also speak your question - it is turned into text and sent like a typed one (see Using Voice Input). The assistant answers with text, charts, and tables. You can’t attach anything to a conversation - no files, photos, screenshots, or documents. The assistant works from your connected accounts, so to have it look at a statement or a pay stub, connect the account it comes from.How to start
Open the assistant and either type your question or, on iOS, use the microphone to speak it. The conversation streams back in real time. Each conversation is its own thread; you can start a new one at any time.On iOS
- Starter cards - a new, empty conversation shows a few suggested questions. Tap one to ask it.
- Copy part of an answer - select any part of the assistant’s reply and copy it, not just the whole message.
- Jump to latest - when you scroll up through a long conversation, a control appears that takes you back to the newest message.
- Offline - without an internet connection, the Assistant tab tells you you’re offline instead of failing to send.
- Links in answers - when an answer links to a Checkr Money page, tapping it opens that screen in the app.
- Nothing connected yet - with no bank connected, the empty conversation offers to connect one instead of the usual starter questions.
