What Well does with your Merrill connection
Connect
Connect Merrill over Plaid: you authenticate with Merrill through Plaid's secure connection, so your bank login never reaches Well; Well holds only a read-only connection it cannot use to move money.
Sync
Well brings account, transaction, and balance in from Merrill on a recurring poll that fetches only what changed since the last read. The first sync backfills history in the background and the connection stays live after.
Enrich
Well resolves each Merrill entity into workspace account, bank transaction, and cash position, assigns categories, and links every record to an audit trail across the rest of your connected tools.
Available
Your data from Merrill lands in the workspace as workspace account, bank transaction, and cash position you can search, chart, and automate.
Questions Merrill unlocks
Ask in plain language. Well answers from your connected Merrill connection, resolved against the rest of your stack.

How Merrill stays secure with Well
Well connects to Merrill through Plaid, the bank-aggregation layer. You authenticate on Merrill's side; Well receives a read-only connection and never sees your bank login. Well can read your accounts, balances, transactions, and investment holdings, but cannot move money, initiate a payment, or change anything at Merrill. Disconnect any time from Well or your Plaid dashboard.

Frequently asked questions about Merrill and Well
How do I connect Merrill to Well, and how long does it take?
From Well, open Connections, find Merrill, and click Connect. Well links Merrill through Plaid: you authenticate on Merrill's side in Plaid's secure flow, and Well receives a read-only connection. Your Merrill login never reaches Well. The handshake takes about a minute, and Well starts importing accounts, balances, transactions, and investment holdings right after.
What does Well pull into the workspace from Merrill?
Well brings in account, transaction, and balance from Merrill and reshapes each entity into your workspace: account becomes workspace account; transaction becomes bank transaction. Every record arrives with the source identifier preserved, so Merrill stays the source of truth while Well lets you query the data alongside the rest of your stack.
What does Merrill unlock once it is connected to Well?
Once Merrill is connected, every record it exposes is queryable from conversation, filterable in records tables, and available to your agents through your workspace. The data stays linked to its Merrill source, so you can always trace a workspace record back to the original.
Can Well surface a balance from Merrill when I ask questions in conversation?
Yes. Merrill balances are indexed in your workspace as cash position, so questions like "show me last week's balances from Merrill" return them with the original Merrill link, the workspace context, and any related records (counterparty, period, attached document) joined inline.
How often does Merrill sync with Well, and what triggers a refresh?
Well polls Merrill regularly for account, transaction, and balance. The first connect pulls the historical window your account allows; subsequent reads only fetch what changed since the last sync, so the load on Merrill's side stays modest.
Can I disconnect Merrill and what happens to the data Well already pulled?
Open Connections > Merrill in Well and click Disconnect. Well drops the Plaid connection immediately and stops reading from Merrill; you can also revoke Well from your Plaid dashboard. The account, transaction, and balance Well already imported stay in your workspace by default; ask Support to purge them if your compliance flow requires it.
