Moving from Cleo AI to Wallet by BudgetBakers
Assembled from both records. Nothing here is an opinion — it is the difference between two rows, written out.
Your data — read this first
Whether Cleo AI can export your transactions is unrecorded. Wallet by BudgetBakers imports transaction history, so what you exported comes with you.

- Budgets

How to do it
- Export from Cleo AI first
Take the transaction export while your subscription is live. The record is unknown on export, so check before you cancel.
- Get the file into a format Wallet by BudgetBakers reads
Its record lists CSV · Excel · OFX. If your export is something else, a spreadsheet can usually re-save it as CSV.
- Import before you connect anything
Import the file first. Connecting banks first creates duplicates that then have to be merged one by one.
- Connect accounts
Find out which of your banks fail before you are billed. Wallet by BudgetBakers reaches banks through an unrecorded connector. Banks named most often in Wallet by BudgetBakers’s 500 most recent App Store reviews: Apple Card (12), Plaid (8), Chase (7), Bank of America (4), Schwab (4) — read what they say before you connect those first.
- Rebuild budgets and rules
No app in this index imports another’s budgets or rules. Budgets are quick; rules are worth rebuilding as transactions arrive rather than all at once.
