The short version

  • Only Fig has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Fig shut down on 1 September 2024. Amazon acquired Fig in August 2023 and folded it into Amazon Q Developer, which now carries the terminal autocomplete; Personetics insight quality depends entirely on transaction categorisation and merchant enrichment, so a bank with poor data produces wrong or embarrassing prompts that damage trust rather than build it.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Fig

  • Shut down on 1 September 2024. Amazon acquired Fig in August 2023 and folded it into Amazon Q Developer, which now carries the terminal autocomplete
  • The standalone desktop app is no longer available or supported
  • The completion specs remain open source on GitHub, but the product that consumed them is gone

Personetics

  • Insight quality depends entirely on transaction categorisation and merchant enrichment, so a bank with poor data produces wrong or embarrassing prompts that damage trust rather than build it.
  • Attributing incremental balances to nudges requires a properly run holdout group, and most banks do not run one, so the business case is usually correlation presented as causation.
  • Deployment is a six to twelve month data and integration programme, not a plug in, and it competes for the same engineering resource as the digital channel roadmap.
  • Pricing is enterprise scale and quoted on customer counts, which puts it beyond most community banks and credit unions where engagement gains would be proportionally largest.
  • It is an engagement layer with no system of record, so if the underlying digital banking app is poor, insights are being layered onto an experience customers already avoid.
