Frequently asked questions
Answers to the questions people ask most before signing up for Silvia. Still need help? Contact us.
How much does Silvia cost?
Silvia has a free tier. Connect every account, track your net worth, and use the AI features with limited monthly usage. Pro is $17/mo billed annually ($20 monthly), and Max is $200/mo. See the pricing section for what each tier includes.
Can Silvia move my money?
No. Silvia has read-only access to every account you connect. We cannot make transfers, place trades, or change anything about your accounts. We only read balances, positions, and transactions to keep your dashboard current, answer your questions, and help you grow your net worth.
Who sees my financial data?
Only you. Silvia is SOC 2 Type II certified. Every byte is encrypted in transit and at rest. We never store your bank credentials (Plaid holds those in a secure vault) and internal access is logged and audited.
What is Plaid and why do I need to use it?
Plaid is the same account-connection layer trusted by Venmo, Robinhood, Chime, SoFi, and hundreds of other financial apps. Your bank login goes to Plaid, not to us. Silvia only ever sees the read-only account data Plaid returns.
How is Silvia different from Empower, Monarch, or ChatGPT?
Empower and Monarch aggregate accounts but don't answer real questions. ChatGPT will talk about finance but has no visibility into your actual balances. Silvia does both. She is connected to every account you own and answers using your real numbers, not a generic case study.
Do you have a mobile app?
Silvia is a mobile-first web experience today. Add cfosilvia.com to your home screen for one-tap access on iOS and Android. Native iOS and Android apps are on the near-term roadmap. Pro and Max users get early access first.
What accounts can I connect?
Over 12,000 US banks and brokerages via Plaid. Crypto exchanges and self-custody wallets via OAuth and read-only API keys. You can also track physical assets like real estate, vehicles, watches, and art manually. Silvia values them using live market data.
