Meet Garden Desktop

Chard is part of the picture.

Reports, records and focused actions appear beside the conversation. These scenes illustrate the product vision with sample data; available workflows follow your account and connected services.

Good questions.

Chard, explained.

A few useful answers before you get started.

How do Chard and Branches work together?

Branches is the banking experience: accounts, connections and the card vision. Chard handles payments and transfers. The previews illustrate the intended flow; available rails follow your account, region and enabled services.

Do I need a separate app for Chard?

Chard is part of the Garden vision. Garden Desktop brings your finance chiefs and their conversations together, with financial tools and administrative controls available in the same workspace.

What do the animated conversations show?

They are interactive product previews using illustrative data. They show how a question, a financial artifact and a review step can come together; they do not connect to an account or execute a financial action.

Can I still use the administrative controls?

Yes. The complete financial workspace remains in Settings. Your finance chiefs are the front door, and the detailed controls stay available when you need them.

Your next chapter starts with a conversation.
