For years, wealth management firms have been on the search to eliminate inefficiencies in their operations—driven primarily by the need to improve margins and elevate the client experience. Time-consuming manual tasks and fragmented workflows were two major obstacles, yet widely accepted as part of the process to differentiate the firm’s’ level of client care. As AI enters the industry, a better path forward has emerged. 

AI has quickly become a force in the industry, reshaping the way wealth managers and firms work. A recent study revealed that 59% of financial advisors cited lack of automation and AI-enabled capabilities within their firms as an issue, highlighting that the industry is ready for innovation and that there’s an urgent need for advanced technologies to streamline workflows and drive more efficiency.

According to McKinsey, AI holds the potential to help advisors reclaim up to 20 to 30% of their time, time that can (and should) be reinvested toward growth-related activities. Reducing the amount of time advisors spend on admin tasks is great, but it’s what they do with that time that matters—and the hope is that it’s spent building stronger relationships and delivering better outcomes for clients.

Today, we are thrilled to introduce a powerful new suite of AI-native practice management capabilities designed to streamline operations and unlock growth opportunities for advisors and their firms.

Beyond note-taking: Introducing a new suite of practice management capabilities

When Zeplyn first entered the scene with our flagship product Zeplyn Meeting Assistant, we set out to close the first major gap in the client meeting experience. With 60% of client data gathering taking place during meetings and less than 25% of meeting notes getting logged into the CRM, we saw the opportunity to use AI to capture and document the most relevant client details, saving advisors 10+ hours a week. As our customers began collecting structured meeting notes, we wanted to help them recognize even more value from that data. Now, we’re transforming those insights into action.

By automating the most time-consuming and often critical aspects of meeting preparation, follow-ups, and compliance tracking, our new features ensure advisors can focus on delivering value rather than managing admin tasks and that firms can optimize the use of their client data.

While wealth management firms have been largely cautious about AI, testing the field with low-barrier tools like note-takers, we’ve seen a significant shift. The combination of our note-taking solution and intelligent workflows has sparked genuine interest about other critical business aspects AI can address. This demand is why we’re thrilled to launch our new practice management capabilities, purpose-built to transform and elevate how firms operate.

A new chapter for AI in wealth management

This marks the beginning of a new chapter for the industry.

From understanding how often referrals are requested to identifying client discussion trends—and everything in between, these new capabilities are enabling firms to take streamlined and data-backed action that position them for growth.

This strategic expansion marks the beginning of a new chapter for wealth management. With greater visibility and use of the data that matters most, firms now have access to unprecedented efficiency and growth opportunities within practice management. For us, the possibilities don’t stop there. With input from hundreds of advisors and key industry CTOs, we are committed to delivering on our aggressive product roadmap and creating even more value for firms and their clients.
