Where Finch is different from Linxo
Finch connects banks across the EU, EEA, the UK and Switzerland through regulated PSD2 Open Banking, in read-only mode. Balances, transactions, investments and crypto sync automatically into one net-worth view, in EUR, GBP, CHF or USD.
On top of that sits an AI finance coach that explains spending patterns in plain language, detects subscriptions and suggests concrete budget changes — rather than only drawing charts.
