California: Google has announced that users can connect its Gemini AI assistant to Google Wallet to analyse spending, prepare budgets and track recurring subscriptions directly through the chat interface.
The feature has begun rolling out in the United States across the web, Android and iOS. Google gave no timetable for its availability in other markets.
As part of Gemini's Personal Intelligence feature, the integration allows users to tag @Google Wallet and ask questions about their spending and savings.
Users can review past expenses, generate interactive charts to track budgets and cash flow, identify recurring subscription charges and flag price increases. Gemini can also provide budget suggestions based on previous spending on shopping and travel.
Users can choose to link their credit cards and bank accounts to Google Wallet through Plaid for deeper insights.
Google said Gemini can only read account information through an optional connection that users can turn on or off at any time.
The assistant cannot transfer, manage or invest users' money.
