What the Transaction Categorization Agent does
If research already happens in Perplexity, this agent turns it into the finished artifact. It proposes a category for every uncoded transaction with the evidence: date, payee, amount, proposed category, evidence, review status. You approve the batch.
Uncoded transactions pile up all month, and categorizing them means reading payee strings and trying to remember how you coded the same vendor last time.

The output - it proposes a category for every uncoded transaction with the evidence: date, payee, amount, proposed category, evidence, review status - is drafted for your review.
