Chase Bank Statement Analyzer — Upload PDF, Get Instant Insights

Turn your Chase checking, savings, or credit card statement into categorized spending insights. No Chase login sharing, no Plaid, no spreadsheets.

Why Analyze Your Chase Statement with AI?

Chase is the largest bank in the United States with over 80 million consumer accounts. Whether you carry a Chase Sapphire Preferred, a Freedom Unlimited, or simply use a Chase Total Checking account, your monthly statement holds a wealth of spending data that most people never fully explore.

The Chase mobile app and website offer basic transaction views, but their built-in categorization is limited and often inaccurate. A purchase at Target might show up as "Shopping" when it was actually groceries. A gas station charge might land in "Travel" instead of "Transportation." And if you hold accounts at other banks, Chase cannot show you a unified picture of your finances.

That is where an AI-powered statement analyzer comes in. Upload your Chase PDF, and in under a minute you get every transaction extracted, intelligently categorized, and visualized on a spending dashboard.

How to Download Your Chase Statement PDF

Before you can analyze your statement, you need the PDF file. Here is how to download it from Chase:

1. Log into chase.com or open the Chase Mobile app.
2. Select your account — checking, savings, or credit card.
3. Click "Statements" in the account menu. On the website, this is under the "Statements & documents" tab. On the app, tap the three-dot menu and select "Statements."
4. Choose the month you want to analyze. Chase keeps statements available for up to 7 years.
5. Click the download icon to save the PDF to your device. The file is typically named something like 2026-01_eStatement.pdf.

Chase statements are well-structured PDFs with clear tables, which makes them particularly easy for AI to parse accurately. Each statement includes an account summary, payment information, and a detailed transaction list organized by date.

Supported Chase Account Types

Spend & Invest works with every type of Chase statement PDF. Here are the most common account types and what the analyzer extracts from each:

Chase Credit Cards

This includes the Chase Sapphire Preferred, Sapphire Reserve, Freedom, Freedom Unlimited, Freedom Flex, Amazon Prime Visa, United Explorer, Southwest Rapid Rewards, and every other Chase-issued credit card. The analyzer extracts all purchases, payments, credits, fees, and interest charges. It separates your actual spending from card payments and bank fees so your category totals reflect real expenditures only.

Chase Total Checking

The most popular checking account in the US. Your statement includes direct deposits, debit card purchases, ATM withdrawals, ACH payments, Zelle transfers, and wire transfers. The analyzer correctly distinguishes between income (deposits) and expenses (withdrawals) and categorizes each debit card purchase by merchant.

Chase Savings and Chase Premier Plus

Savings account statements are simpler but still useful for tracking transfers, interest earned, and any fees. The analyzer identifies recurring transfers between your Chase accounts and flags any unexpected charges.

Chase Business Accounts

If you run a small business with a Chase Ink credit card or a Chase Business Complete Checking account, you can analyze those statements too. The AI handles business-specific transaction types like vendor payments, payroll debits, and merchant service deposits.

What Insights You Get from Your Chase Statement

Once you upload your Chase statement PDF to Spend & Invest, the AI processes it in under 60 seconds. Here is what you get:

Automatic Transaction Categorization

Every transaction on your Chase statement is assigned to a category: Groceries, Dining Out, Transportation, Entertainment, Shopping, Utilities, Healthcare, Subscriptions, and more. Chase's own vendor descriptions like "WHOLEFDS MKT #10234" or "UBER *TRIP" are interpreted by the AI and matched to the right category. You can customize categories or correct any assignments, and the system learns from your corrections for future statements.

Spending Breakdown by Category

A visual pie chart shows exactly where your money went. See at a glance whether dining or groceries dominated your spending, or whether subscription services are quietly adding up. Click any category to drill down into individual transactions.

Month-Over-Month Trends

Upload multiple months of Chase statements and you unlock trend analysis. See bar charts comparing your spending across months. Categories with increases over 20% are highlighted with amber alerts so you can catch lifestyle creep before it becomes a problem.

Top Vendors Analysis

Find out which merchants receive the most of your money. You might already know Amazon and Whole Foods are near the top, but you could be surprised by how much you spend at smaller recurring vendors. This analysis helps you identify spending patterns you might not notice from individual transactions.

Reconciliation Check

The analyzer compares the total it computed from individual transactions against the total printed on your Chase statement. If the numbers match, you know every transaction was captured. If they differ, the discrepancy is flagged so you can investigate. This is something no manual review provides unless you add up every line yourself.

Manual Tracking vs Spend & Invest for Chase Statements

Here is a direct comparison of what it looks like to analyze your Chase statement manually versus using an AI-powered tool:

Why You Do Not Need to Share Your Chase Login

Many budget apps ask you to connect your Chase account through Plaid or a similar aggregator. This means entering your Chase username and password into a third-party service. While Plaid is generally secure, it does create a persistent connection to your bank account that operates in the background.

With the PDF upload approach, none of that is necessary. You download your statement directly from Chase, a file you already have access to, and upload it yourself. The benefits are significant:

• No third-party bank access. Your Chase login credentials stay between you and Chase. No middleware, no tokens, no persistent connections.
• No background data syncing. Plaid-connected apps continuously pull your transaction data. With PDF upload, data only flows when you explicitly upload a file.
• Works even if Plaid is down. Plaid outages are common and can leave budget apps unable to fetch your latest transactions for days. PDFs are always available from Chase directly.
• You choose what to share. Upload only the statements you want analyzed. Skip months you do not care about. You are in full control of your data.

How the AI Handles Chase Statement Formats

Chase uses a consistent PDF format across most of its consumer products, but there are variations. Credit card statements have a different layout from checking accounts. The Sapphire cards include rewards point summaries. Business cards show spending categories that Chase assigns internally.

The AI powering Spend & Invest reads the statement like a human would. It identifies the transaction table regardless of where it appears on the page. It understands that a negative number on a credit card statement is a payment or credit, not a charge. It separates interest and fees from actual purchases so your spending totals reflect real expenditure.

Chase occasionally updates its statement layout, especially for credit cards. Template-based OCR tools break when this happens. AI-powered analysis adapts automatically because it understands the semantic meaning of the content, not just the position of columns on a page.

Ask Questions About Your Chase Spending

Once your Chase statement is analyzed, you can ask questions in plain English using the query bar. For example:

• "How much did I spend on dining this month?"
• "What are my top 5 recurring subscriptions on my Chase card?"
• "Did my grocery spending go up compared to last month?"
• "How much did I spend at Amazon across all my accounts?"

The AI interprets your question, runs the calculation using deterministic math (not AI estimation), and returns the exact answer along with the supporting transactions. This means the numbers are always accurate, never approximated.
