Zado
An AI buddy that manages your money so your brain doesn't have to.
Built by an ADHD founder, for brains that were never built for budgeting. Visual envelopes, a no-shame coach named Penny, and zero spreadsheets.
How Zado protects your money
- Your bank login never touches Zado. You sign in to your bank through Plaid.
- Read-only: Zado can see your money, but it can't move it.
- Penny's AI runs at Anthropic, which normally deletes what we send within 30 days and doesn't train on it.
- We never sell your data.
30-day money-back guarantee. 30 days free, no card. Not for you? Ask within 30 days of paying and we'll refund your payment in full. No questions.
