Why SyncBank

5 reasons to choose SyncBank

Own your data

Runs on your machine. Not our servers.

SyncBank is self-hosted. Transactions are fetched and pushed locally. No third-party cloud, no SyncBank storage, nothing written back to your bank.

Get started

Beyond US banks. Beyond lock-in.

Copilot is polished and powerful, but US-only, iOS/Mac only, and your transactions never leave its cloud. SyncBank connects EU and US banks, exports to the tools you already use, and runs on your own machine.

FAQ

Common questions

Can SyncBank replace Copilot?

+
They serve different purposes. Copilot is a full budgeting interface. You live inside it. SyncBank is a sync layer. It moves your bank transactions into the tools you already use (Notion, Airtable, Google Sheets, Actual Budget, CSV). If you want EU bank support or data portability, SyncBank fills that gap.

Does SyncBank work on Mac?

+
Yes. SyncBank runs on Mac, Windows, and Linux. Unlike Copilot which is iOS/Mac only, SyncBank works across all major operating systems.

Does SyncBank support EU, US, and Canadian banks?

+
Yes. SyncBank connects to 2,600+ EU banks via Enable Banking (PSD2/Open Banking) across 29 European countries, and to US and Canadian banks via SimpleFIN.

Where can SyncBank send my transactions?

+
SyncBank supports 5 destinations: Notion, Google Sheets, Airtable, Actual Budget, and CSV. You can use one or combine multiple at the same time.

Is there a free trial?

+
Yes. SyncBank includes a 10-day free trial so you can test the full setup before purchasing a license.
