Vylo

How do I get set up?

Connect a bank, let the first import finish, and take a look at your transactions.

Start with the bank accounts you use most. You can connect more later and invite someone to your household when you’re ready.

How long does setup take?

The first connection requests 90 days of transactions and categorizes them automatically. It usually takes about five minutes. Some banks take longer or provide less history.

After that, transactions arrive and get sorted in the background. Vylo uses its ordinary rules automatically; AI help requires a separate choice.

What should I do after the import?

Look through a few familiar purchases and review anything uncertain. You can then make a budget from past spending or choose your own amounts.

Invite your household if you want to share the same accounts, categories, and budget with someone else.
