Piggy is the PiggySize AI assistant, built on Anthropic's Claude. It's a Pro feature that reads the financial information you've entered and answers your questions about it in plain English. Piggy can look things up, do the math, and walk you through the app — but it can't change your financial data.
How it works
- Piggy answers using your own data. It has about 40 read tools for your income, bills, assets, debts, goals, net worth, businesses, and retirement projections, plus current US tax and contribution limits.
- It only uses numbers it looks up for you, not guesses, and shows answers in plain language with tables or charts when helpful.
- It can guide you around the app by highlighting the exact button or section on your screen with a spotlight.
- After each answer it can suggest up to three follow-up questions you can tap to ask next.
- Limits: 50 messages per day and 500 characters per message.
What Piggy can and can't do
Piggy can:
- Explain your income, bills, debts, net worth, and retirement outlook.
- Run precise calculations, like loan payoff or a debt payoff plan.
- Look up current IRS and Social Security figures for you.
- Show you where a feature lives and how to use it.
Piggy can't change your financial data. It can't add, edit, or delete your income, bills, assets, debts, goals, or businesses — you do that yourself on the pages. There are only two things Piggy can save, and each happens only after you say yes:
- Save your birthday, so retirement and contribution-limit math work.
- Send a support request to the PiggySize team, with helpful context from your chat, when you need a human.
Your data and privacy
- To answer you, Piggy sends your questions and the data used to reply to Anthropic, the AI provider. Under Anthropic's business terms, this data is not used to train their models.
- Please don't paste sensitive details like Social Security, card, or bank account numbers. Piggy shows a gentle warning if it spots something that looks sensitive.
- Piggy is for Pro members and is turned off for child accounts.
Good to know
- Finance only. Piggy sticks to your finances and PiggySize features, and politely declines off-topic questions.
- Not advice. Answers are for information only, based on the settings and data you entered — not guarantees, and not a substitute for a professional.
- You can turn it off. In Settings, the AI Assistant toggle ("Show the Piggy AI chat button for financial guidance") shows or hides Piggy.
- Ready to try it? See "Ask Piggy about your finances" for how to open the chat and what to ask.
