Heads up: Connecting Ballast to an AI assistant means your portfolio data — holdings, transactions, journal entries, and price targets — will be shared with that AI provider. Only connect if you're comfortable with that. Ballast never sells your data, but you should review the privacy policy of any AI tool you use.
Watch the setup walkthrough and a few example conversations.
