How the AI Works
Thrust's AI CFO runs entirely on your iPhone with a custom on-device model built for personal finance and forecasting:
On-device AI (iOS 26+)
The on-device AI is optimized for spending analysis, safe-to-spend calculations, cash-flow forecasts, goal projections, and risk detection. Responses are delivered as interactive cards — charts, projected dates, summaries, and action buttons. The AI can open specific screens in the app when you ask for navigation, handles multi-currency finances, and runs fully offline on all supported iPhones after a one-time model download. Once set up, no internet is required and no data leaves your device.
All processing happens on your device — no data is transmitted, and results are never stored in a shared cache or logged externally.
