Google is adding Wallet to Gemini’s Personal Intelligence connections, enabling the assistant to answer budgeting questions using a user’s spending data. The integration can analyze transactions in Wallet and, when linked through Plaid, information from bank accounts and credit cards.
Users can ask Gemini to review spending over the past quarter or help create a plan to save $1,000 in three months. Gemini can also generate charts within a conversation covering money coming in and going out, asset allocation and budget trends.
Google says the assistant can identify recurring payments and flag subscriptions that have become more expensive during the year. It can also use prior spending on gifts and travel to suggest a budget for an upcoming holiday period.
Wallet joins other Google services that can connect to Gemini through Personal Intelligence:
- Gmail
- Google Photos
- YouTube
- Google Search
The Wallet connection is off by default and can be enabled or disabled in the Connected Apps section of Personal Intelligence settings. Google says Gemini receives read-only access, meaning it cannot transfer money, manage funds or make investments for the user.
The rollout began for Gemini users in the United States on November 13 and is available on the web and in the Android and iOS apps. Availability in other markets has not been confirmed.
