How to Connect Your Robinhood Account to Claude (Guide)
How to Connect Your Robinhood Account to Claude# permalink to this section
Robinhood makes it easy to build a portfolio that's actually hard to summarize: a handful of individual stocks bought at different times, some fractional shares, maybe a few crypto positions, and an IRA if you signed up for the match. That mix is exactly where manual tracking falls apart fastest. Connecting Robinhood to Claude means you can ask about all of it at once, stocks, crypto, and options included.
What You Can Connect# permalink to this section
Account Type | Supported |
|---|---|
Individual brokerage (stocks, ETFs, options) | Yes |
Crypto | Yes |
Traditional IRA | Yes |
Roth IRA | Yes |
Robinhood doesn't offer SEP or SIMPLE IRAs, and it doesn't support 401(k) accounts, so if you have a workplace retirement plan elsewhere, that stays a separate connection.
How to Connect It# permalink to this section
- Create your free OpenBudget account.
- Select Robinhood from the institution list and log in through Plaid's secure, read-only connection. This connection can see your holdings but can never place a trade, buy crypto, or move money on your behalf.
- Your brokerage, crypto, and IRA holdings sync automatically.
- Install the MCP server for Claude, a one-time step covered in our connection guide.
- Ask your first question.
Setup takes about five minutes.

Why Mixed Portfolios Need This More# permalink to this section
A portfolio that's entirely index funds is fairly easy to eyeball. A portfolio with a dozen individual stocks, a few fractional positions, and some crypto is not, since each asset type behaves differently and none of them show up in the same place inside the app without manually clicking through every position.
That question about selling your most profitable position and owing capital gains tax matters more here too, since Robinhood portfolios tend to have wider swings between winners and losers than a diversified fund portfolio would. Our guide on estimating capital gains tax before you sell covers how holding period changes that number significantly.
The Bottom Line# permalink to this section
Robinhood is built for a portfolio that changes often and spans a few different asset types. Connecting it to Claude means you can actually keep up with that mix, asking a plain question about crypto exposure or a potential sale instead of manually tallying positions across stocks, fractional shares, and crypto separately.
