What was done

Haroun Adamu at Android Police gave Gemini in Google Sheets a sample bank export with 42 October transactions. Gemini sorted them into his 10 categories, subtracted a return and built a tab showing $3,440.84 spent against a $2,830 budget. It also found two identical $24.99 gym charges four days apart, but the data was a sample, and the feature costs $20 a month. Check the original.

How to do it

  1. Paste the prompt into the tool, and replace the text in brackets with your own.
  2. Read the answer through. Do not send, delete or publish anything until you have seen it yourself.
  3. Check the original before you trust a figure, a name or a date.

Try it with Valgfri agent

Here is my bank statement for [month] as a CSV from [bank]. Sort every transaction into the categories [list], subtract returns and build a tab comparing my spending with my budget per category. Flag charges that look doubled and purchases you cannot place. Do not contact the bank or any shop. Show me the list of possible double charges before you change anything in the sheet. You are done when every transaction has a category or sits under Other.

Replace text in brackets with your own.

Done when. Every transaction has a category or sits under Other.

  • Ask Claude if you pay for two home insurance policies

    A homeowner had Claude, which monitors the inbox and reads a private document vault, check a renewal notice from an old insurer. Claude found two home policies on the same house for a year: the mortgage account had paid $5,292 to the old carrier and $2,883 to the new one. Claude searched 79 mailboxes, found no cancellation and drafted a backdated cancellation request. The refund is promised but not received, and the setup is homemade.

  • Build a negotiation sheet before bidding on a used car

    AnnaMarie Houlis at Moneywise asked Muse to prepare the purchase of a used 2004 Jeep Wrangler listed at 24,394 dollars. The agent found the price sat 3,800 to 5,900 dollars above a good deal, and that the dealer had already cut it by 1,500 dollars. It made a two-page PDF: open at 19,000, aim for 20,000 to 21,000 and walk away above 22,000. Muse made the plan, but could not negotiate with the dealer itself without more permissions.

  • Find two cheap seven-seat rental cars with Codex

    The user Xcelerate needed two rental cars with seven seats each for a trip to Maine. Codex searched in the browser through the memberships at Avis, Hertz, Costco and Chase, queued the CAPTCHAs for the user, and a sub-agent read tips on Reddit. It found an Avis reseller with a discount code at 600 dollars, against 1,100 dollars direct. The user counts it as 1,000 dollars saved, but does not say clearly whether the prices are per car.
