See what an agent can do with Expensify before you ever sign up. Pick a story: recorded sessions replay real probe-harness transcripts; commands tagged live-capable can re-run against the real endpoint from our edge, right now (▶ run live — the exact same request, live and recorded lines always labeled); sandboxed self-drive sessions are designed and gated (docs/TRY-IT.md).

Opportunities — the stories that would move this product's scores, from its own judged verdictsOpportunitiestop 8 of 44 stories with headroom

What would move Expensify’s scores — derived from its own judged verdicts, biggest headroom first. Each line quotes what the judge found missing; shipping it (or evidencing it publicly) is the fix.

  1. Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productConnect an agent via an official MCP server

    nonemoves agent-readyimpact 45

    Expensify offers a REST API with OAuth2 credentials, but there is no evidence of an official MCP server for agent connectivity; the AI features described (Ask Expensify) are first-party assistant features, not an MCP integration point.

  2. Reimbursements — stories about reimbursements in this arenaSubmit an out-of-pocket expense and get reimbursed by direct deposit in days, tracked from submission to payout

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    Missing: reimbursement/payout documentation, direct deposit setup details, submission-to-payout tracking evidence.

  3. Openness — open source, data portability, and self-hosting storiesExport all of my data in open formats and leave

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    No evidence of a bulk/open-format data export or account-portability feature; Expensify offers accounting-system connections (QuickBooks, NetSuite) and an API requiring OAuth credentials, but nothing about exporting all user data in open formats for departure from the platform.

  4. Openness — open source, data portability, and self-hosting storiesSelf-host the core product

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    Expensify is a hosted SaaS product; while its App repo is open source on GitHub, there is no evidence of a self-hostable backend/server deployment for the core expense-management product—only a client app install step (npm install) is shown, not a full self-host path.

  5. Privacy posture — data-handling and privacy storiesPrevent my data from being used to train AI models

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    No evidence of any AI-training opt-out, data-use control, or privacy settings related to AI model training; in fact community evidence shows receipt data was historically routed to third-party human contractors (MTurk) without confidentiality protections, suggesting weak data-handling controls generally.

  6. Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productPoint an agent at llms.txt or agent-oriented docs

    nonemoves agent-readyimpact 30

    No evidence of an llms.txt file, agent-oriented documentation, or any machine-readable docs endpoint; the docs-md probe returned a 404, and no other citation mentions such a resource.

  7. Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productUse an official CLI

    nonemoves agent-readyimpact 30

    Evidence shows an API/Integration Server with OAuth2, and a GitHub repo for the app itself, but no official CLI tool for AI-native workflows is documented anywhere in the pack.

  8. Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productIssue scoped/least-privilege API credentials for an agent

    nonemoves agent-readyimpact 30

    Missing: scoped/permissioned API key or token creation, agent-specific credential controls, documentation of least-privilege design.
