Where the data comes from
The system looks at:- Your transaction history - how you spend across categories and merchants, and how that changes month over month
- Your income - frequency, amounts, and any deviation from your normal pattern
- Your recurring activity - subscriptions, bills, and how they evolve over time
- Your account balances - movement across accounts and your overall net worth
How long it takes
Some categories of insights need a few weeks of transaction history before MyTruv has enough signal to surface them. If you have only just connected your accounts, the Feed tells you it is still gathering what it needs. Once MyTruv has looked at what you have:- Insights appear on Home and in the full Feed
- If there still isn’t enough to go on, the Feed says it needs more data - usually a longer transaction history, sometimes another connected account
What affects accuracy
- Quality of connected data - missing or out-of-date account connections (a disconnected bank, a broken payroll link) reduce coverage. Keep your connections healthy on Banks, payroll & credit.
- Account breadth - connecting bank + payroll gives MyTruv a fuller picture than bank alone.
- History length - subscription detection and recurring-pattern insights stabilize after a few months of transactions.
Insights are informational
Insights are informational and educational. They are not financial advice. Always consider your full financial situation when making decisions.
