Will ExpenseBot tell me when expenses or income are missing from my sheet?

Yes — this is one of ExpenseBot's most useful habits. Once your bank or credit card is connected via Plaid, ExpenseBot re-checks your transactions every week and emails you only when something is missing:

  • 💳 Charges on your card with no matching expense in your spreadsheet — a receipt the Gmail scan didn't see, a vendor that never emails receipts, or a charge you'd simply forgotten
  • 🏦 Deposits in your bank with no matching income in your income tab — a client payment, platform payout, or transfer you haven't logged
  • ↩️ Refunds and statement credits that should offset an earlier expense

What the email leads to: open Review expenses → Match card activity (expenses side) or your income review (deposits side) and every flagged item is a one-click decision — Add to Spreadsheet or Ignore. ExpenseBot filters the obvious noise automatically: card payments, transfers between your own accounts, and anything you've ignored before (ignore decisions are remembered). Nothing is ever added to your sheet without your click.

How to turn it on: connect your bank or card via Plaid, then make sure the reconciliation toggle is ON in your bank connection settings. From then on the weekly check runs by itself — no reminders to set, no month-end catch-up session.

Requirements: a paid plan with a Plaid-connected bank or card (Plaid covers US and Canadian institutions). If you can't or don't want to connect a bank, you can do the same matching manually anytime by uploading a statement PDF or CSV under Match card activity — see the credit-card reconciliation entry for statement formats and the month-by-month upload flow.
