The problem
Where your time is going
These are the documented time-sinks for Financial Advisors — the tasks that AI can help most.
Financial plan summaries take hours
Distilling a complex financial plan into a plain-language summary that clients actually understand takes 2–4 hours per plan — and every client expects one.
Quarterly review letters are repetitive
Writing the same structure with different numbers and market commentary for 50–100+ clients every quarter is tedious but expected. At 30 minutes each, it's a multi-day project.
Meeting notes need professional formatting
Turning handwritten or rough meeting notes into professional, organized documentation with action items and follow-up tasks takes time after every client meeting.
