Conducting comprehensive financial assessments

Automates✓ Available Now

What You Do Today

Gather a client's complete financial picture — income, expenses, assets, debts, insurance, tax situation, goals, and risk tolerance. The plan is only as good as the data you collect.

AI That Applies

AI aggregates financial data from connected accounts, identifies gaps in the picture, calculates key ratios automatically, and generates preliminary needs assessments.

Technologies

How It Works

The system ingests connected accounts as its primary data source. The processing layer applies the appropriate analytical models to the structured data, generating scored outputs that surface the most actionable insights. The output — preliminary needs assessments — surfaces in the existing workflow where the practitioner can review and act on it. The discovery conversation.

What Changes

Data collection is largely automated through account linking. AI pre-calculates ratios and identifies obvious gaps before your meeting.

What Stays

The discovery conversation. Understanding a client's real goals, fears, and priorities requires empathy and listening that no form captures.

What To Do Next

This section won't tell you what your numbers should be. It will show you how to find them yourself. Every instruction below produces a real, verifiable result in your organization. No benchmarks, no projections — just the steps to build your own evidence.

1

Establish Your Baseline

Know where you are before you move

Before adopting AI tools for conducting comprehensive financial assessments, understand your current state.

•
Map your current process: Document how conducting comprehensive financial assessments works today — who does what, how long it takes, where the bottlenecks are. You need this baseline to measure improvement.
•
Identify the judgment points: The discovery conversation. These are the boundaries AI won't cross.
•
Assess your data readiness: AI tools for this area need data to work. Check whether your organization has the historical data, integrations, and data quality to support financial planning platforms (eMoney, MoneyGuidePro, RightCapital) tools.

Without a baseline, you can't measure whether AI actually improved anything. You'll adopt tools without knowing if they're working.

Define Your Measures

What to track and how to calculate it

Time per cycle

How to calculate

Measure how long conducting comprehensive financial assessments takes end-to-end today, then after AI adoption.

Why it matters

The most visible improvement is speed. If AI doesn't save time, question whether it's adding value.

Quality of output

How to calculate

Track error rates, rework frequency, or stakeholder satisfaction scores before and after.

Why it matters

Speed without quality is just faster mistakes. Measure both.

When to check: Check after 30 days of consistent use, then quarterly.
The commitment: Give new tools at least 30 days before judging. The first week is always awkward.
What NOT to measure: Don't measure AI adoption rate as a KPI. Adoption follows value — if the tool helps, people use it.
