Your money lives in so many places.

Have a great day!
Some things about building wealth are hard. DayGist is easy.
Knowing where you stand financially is the foundation of good money management. But checking multiple apps is tedious, and life is busy — it's easy to feel on top of it one day and lose track the next.
DayGist solves this.
Every day, before you make a single spending decision, you'll have your financial summary. No apps, no logins, no effort.
The obvious question
Your banking app is free. So why this?
Because the app waits for you to remember. The text just arrives.
The usual morning
- Open the Chase app. Then Ally. Then Amex.
- Remember three passwords (or reset one).
- Add it all up in your head.
- Do it again tomorrow.
With DayGist
- It's already in your messages.
- Every account, one text, at 7 AM.
- No app, no login, no dashboard.
- Read it in five seconds. Done.

The connection
Read-only, by design.
Your bank connects through Plaid — the same connection behind Venmo & Cash App, used by 100M+ accounts. Your login goes to Plaid, never to us.

Sample balances — yours arrive with the real numbers.
Questions, answered.
DayGist = gist — a short summary. It's your daily financial summary: one text, every account, every morning.
Yes. No app to download, no account to log into, no dashboard to check. Your balances arrive as a normal SMS each morning.
Your bank's app shows you one institution, when you remember to open it. DayGist pulls your accounts — across banks — into one text that arrives on its own. You're paying about 12¢ a day for not having to remember.
Connect up to three banks — five accounts total — and they all land in the same single morning text.
Only the minimum: your phone number, timezone, and an encrypted connection token (AES-256). We don't store your bank credentials, account numbers, balances, or transaction history — balances are fetched, texted, and discarded.
7:00 AM by default; pick any time that fits your morning.
Sometimes banks ask you to re-authenticate — if that happens, your daily text includes a link to reconnect. It takes about 30 seconds.
We show your available balance as your bank reports it through Plaid. Pending charges can take 1–3 business days to settle, so check your bank app for up-to-the-minute detail.
Yes — reply STOP to any text, or use the cancel link. Nothing is charged in your first 15 days.
Why I built DayGist
I got tired of opening four banking apps just to know where I stood. Sometimes I'd rather not look. So I built the thing I actually wanted: one quiet text, with every account, before the day begins.
— Tyler, Founder
