Understand your spending without linking your bank. Skwad syncs your transactions using your bank's built-in email alerts.

Skwad doesn't require your bank login, so there's no need to re-link accounts. Skwad's approach is faster because your bank sends alerts immediately, and we process them instantly. Other apps typically refresh only after you login, or on a schedule, which can be hours or days after your purchase.

"I love what you all are doing. As a security-conscious technologist, I thought I was going crazy watching all these big financial services and institutions give up on their in-house integrations. Giving your raw bank credentials to anybody is just...not OK." -Chuck (US)

"I always avoided using budgeting apps because you had to link your bank account to the app using third party websites such as plaid. I was always concerned about giving away my banking login info to strangers. Thank you for coming up with a budgeting app that respects privacy!" -Skye C. (US)
