The Problem

Every Client Meeting Leaves an Evening of Notes Behind

It grows with every household you add. Each review leaves notes, CRM tasks, follow-up emails, and records your compliance team must keep, and most of it gets written after hours.

  1. Notes

    Meeting notes get rebuilt from memory hours later.

    Notes

    AI drafts notes from the transcript minutes after the meeting ends.

  2. CRM

    Tasks promised in the meeting don't reach the CRM.

    CRM

    Tasks and notes are drafted into Wealthbox, Redtail, or Salesforce for review.

  3. Records

    Notes pasted into public chatbots leave no archive.

    Records

    Every AI draft and final copy goes to your archiving vendor.

  4. Prep

    Review prep means clicking through several systems.

    Prep

    A client brief pulls CRM notes and planning data onto one page.

Your 2 p.m. review covered a Roth conversion, a college fund, and a beneficiary change. By 4 p.m. you've had two more meetings. That evening you rebuild the notes from memory, type tasks into Redtail, and draft a follow-up email that compliance still has to review. Some advisors have started pasting notes into a public chatbot, with no archive and no vendor review. Doing nothing means slower follow-ups, thinner records, and an exam question you'd rather not answer.

We start with consent: clients agree to recording before any meeting is captured. Then the AI drafts notes, tasks, and a follow-up email from the transcript and puts them in your CRM for review. Nothing reaches a client until you approve it, and every draft lands in your archive. You end the day with notes done, not a stack of half-remembered meetings.

  • Consent before every recording

    Clients agree to recording first, with a notice that fits each state's consent rules.

  • Every AI draft archived

    Drafts and finals go to your archive, so your books and records stay complete.

  • Advisor approves every message

    Follow-ups wait for your approval and, where your procedures require it, compliance review.

Our AI for Financial Advisors Process

From Your Current Workflow to Reviewed AI Drafts in Five Steps

You see where the hours go, approve every compliance rule, and test with mock meetings before AI touches a real client conversation.

  1. We map how notes, tasks, and client messages move today, from meeting to CRM to archive. You get the jobs ranked by hours spent, plus a note on what your CRM's own AI features already cover.

What's Included

Leading AI Solutions for Advisor Productivity and Clean Records

Each build covers consent, meeting notes, CRM updates, client prep, review queues, and archiving, so your AI assistant for financial advisors fits your compliance program.

  • Consent-first meeting capture

    Recording starts only after the client agrees, with notices set for all-party consent states.

  • AI meeting notes

    Summaries, action items, and life events drafted from Zoom or Teams transcripts in your note format.

  • CRM notes and tasks

    Drafts written to Wealthbox, Redtail, or Salesforce Financial Services Cloud, waiting for your review.

  • Client prep briefs

    Before each review, one page with recent notes, open tasks, and planning data from your exports.

  • Archive and review queue

    Every draft and final goes to your archiving vendor, and client messages wait for compliance approval.

  • Testing, launch, and procedures

    Mock meeting tests, a one-advisor pilot, written procedures, and documentation your team keeps.

Projects We've Built

Finance websites, apps, and dashboards we designed and built. They show our financial data and client portal work, not advisor AI workflows, which we scope per firm.

What Our Clients Say

What Clients Say After Launch

Feedback from teams we have built websites, apps, and platforms for.

We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.

Work Culture

Why Advisory Firms Trust Us With AI

We build AI solutions for financial advisors the way your CCO would want them: consent first, every draft archived, and no output reaching a client unreviewed.

  • Compliance designs the rules

    Your CCO approves the consent script, retention, and review queues before we build. The AI follows written procedures you can show an examiner.

  • No investment advice from AI

    The AI drafts notes and messages, not recommendations. Advice and suitability stay with your licensed advisors, and prompts refuse requests for picks.

  • Records go to your archive

    Every AI draft and final goes to your archiving vendor, not a side app. Your books and records stay complete when AI joins the workflow.

  • Your CRM stays the record

    Notes and tasks live in Wealthbox, Redtail, or Salesforce, not in our system. If you switch tools, nothing is stranded with us.

  • Honest about what fits

    If an off-the-shelf note taker already covers your firm, we'll tell you before we quote. A custom build only makes sense where your procedures need it.

  • You own every account

    Model, meeting, and integration accounts are in your firm's name. You can run, change, or end the setup without asking us.

Good fit

  • Independent advisors writing notes at night

    You hold back-to-back client reviews, then spend evenings turning scribbles into CRM notes and follow-up emails before the details fade.

  • RIAs comparing AI note takers

    You want an AI note taker for financial advisors that writes into your CRM and archive, not another app holding its own copy of client data.

  • Firms on Wealthbox, Redtail, or Salesforce

    Your CRM holds households, tasks, and review cycles, and you want AI software for financial advisors that updates it instead of replacing it.

  • Compliance officers asked to approve AI

    Your advisors already want AI tools, and you need every draft archived, client messages reviewed, and vendors documented before anyone says yes.

  • Dual registrants with FINRA obligations

    Your firm also has broker-dealer reps, so AI notes and client messages must meet FINRA Rule 4511 and SEC Rule 17a-4 recordkeeping.

Not a fit

  • AI that picks investments

    You want AI to recommend securities or build client portfolios. We don't build that: investment advice stays with your licensed advisors.

  • CRM not set up yet

    Your CRM is half set up and households are missing. CRM for Financial Advisors should come first, then AI on top of clean data.

  • Budget under $1,450

    Your budget is under $1,450. An off-the-shelf advisor note taker may cover one advisor's meetings, and we'll tell you if it fits.

  • No security program yet

    You first need a written security program and vendor reviews. Cybersecurity for Financial Advisors and RIAs covers that before AI is added.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers on cost, recordkeeping, recording consent, investment analysis, and planning software.

  • AI for financial advisors at DeveloperLook starts at $1,450 for a meeting notes workflow with CRM drafts and archiving. An advisor productivity suite with client prep briefs and a compliance queue starts at $3,950, and firm-wide workflows start at $8,300. Model and meeting tool usage stay on your own vendor bills.

  • A meeting notes workflow goes live in 4 to 6 weeks, including compliance sign-off. A productivity suite takes 7 to 10 weeks, and firm-wide workflows take 11 to 14. CRM API access and your archiving vendor's intake setup usually set the pace, so we request both in week 1.

  • Meeting note takers reclaim the most time, followed by CRM task drafting and client prep briefs. Independent advisors without support staff feel it most, because they write their own notes and follow-ups. The AI tools for financial advisors that last are the ones that write into your CRM and archive, so nothing gets typed twice.

  • Financial advisors use AI to summarize research, compare fund documents, and explain portfolio changes in plain language, checking every figure themselves. AI shouldn't pick securities or set allocations, and FINRA Regulatory Notice 24-09 reminds firms that existing rules apply to AI tools. Our builds draft explanations from your own research for your review.

  • Tools that combine CRM notes, life events, and planning data deliver the most client insight. Our client prep brief puts recent conversations, open tasks, upcoming required distributions, and plan changes on one page before each review. The advisor decides what matters, and the brief keeps last meeting's promises in view.

  • Planning software vendors are adding AI features such as document data extraction and plain-language plan summaries. The bigger change happens around the software: AI moves data between meetings, the CRM, and the plan, so advisors stop retyping it. We connect those pieces through documented exports and APIs while your planning tool stays the system of record.

  • No, AI tools can't replace financial planning software for advisors. Planning tools run tested projections, tax rules, and Monte Carlo analysis that a language model shouldn't improvise. AI works best around them: gathering client data, summarizing a plan in plain words, and preparing the meeting. Keep eMoney, MoneyGuidePro, or RightCapital as the engine.

  • It can fit SEC and FINRA rules when its notes and messages are kept, reviewed, and supervised like any other record. RIAs keep records under SEC Rule 204-2, and broker-dealers under FINRA Rule 4511 and SEC Rule 17a-4. We send every draft and final to your archive and document each vendor. Your CCO makes the final call.

  • Yes, in many cases, and asking every client is the safer habit. Several states require every party's consent to record a call, and clients may join from anywhere. Our setup reads a consent notice, records the client's answer, and stops capture if they decline. The advisor can still take manual notes for that meeting.

  • Your firm owns the prompts, settings, and every vendor account, and client data stays in your CRM, archive, and cloud tenant. Each plan includes 30, 60, or 90 days of post-launch review, when we sample outputs with compliance and tune prompts. After that, keep us for changes or run it with our documentation.
