Flourish, a technology platform serving registered investment advisors, perhaps best known for its cash management features, has launched Flourish Lending, a residential mortgage product designed to help independent advisors compete with banks and wirehouses that use mortgage rate incentives to attract clients.
The platform operates as a digital-first mortgage broker, providing clients access to rates directly from capital markets and supporting refinancing, cash-out refinancing and new home purchase loans of up to $10 million for primary and investment properties.
In 2025, Flourish acquired the AI-powered liability analytics startup Sora Finance as part of its efforts to build out lending services for clients.
“For years, advisors have told us they lose assets to wirehouses and banks when clients need a mortgage,” said Max Lane, chief executive officer of Flourish.
The solution offers advisors a co-branded lending experience with features such as proactive refinance alerts, a streamlined application process, and rapid closings.
“Lending has long been one of the biggest structural advantages banks and wirehouses hold over independent advisors,” said Dani Fava, chief strategy officer at Carson Group. “When clients need mortgages or refinancing, advisors often have limited ways to help, which can lead to assets leaving the advisory relationship.”
Flourish Lending is currently licensed in over 20 states, covering more than half the U.S. population, and expects nationwide availability within 12 months.
Flourish reports that it works with more than 1,100 RIAs managing over $2.6 trillion in assets.
Subatomic has launched Concierge, an agentic AI system that functions as a chief of staff directing specialized AI workers across a wealth management firm’s operations.
Concierge operates as a firm-specific AI layer that manages multi-step workflows across connected systems, routing work to human and AI workers for tasks such as meeting prep, data synchronization, client follow-up and compliance documentation, without requiring human oversight at each handoff.
The system allows advisors and staff to interact through chat, Slack, email or voice, operating within each firm’s environment with data remaining in their systems.
Subatomic builds a unified data layer called Subatomic IQ before deploying the Concierge, connecting CRM platforms, custodial feeds, planning tools, document repositories and compliance systems.
The Concierge directs five specialized AI workers: Advisor Intelligence, which synthesizes client profiles before conversations; Meeting Preparation, which collects client data and portfolio changes; Client Follow-Up, which drafts summaries and updates CRM systems; Data Operations, which synchronizes custodial and CRM data; and Documentation and Compliance Lens, which automates form completion and produces audit trails.
At a $1.4 billion AUM RIA, the system helped reclaim more than 8,000 hours annually, delivering over $500,000 in operational value equivalent to four full-time employees in year one, according to Subatomic.
Subatomic confirmed the deployment of its 50th AI worker across its client base, each customized to firm-specific standards.
Advisor technology platform Nitrogen has achieved ISO/IEC 42001 certification, the international standard for Artificial Intelligence Management Systems, becoming what the company believes is the first wealthtech company to earn the certification.
Created in 2023, the certification has been granted to only a handful of large providers, including IBM and Google Cloud’s AI services, for example, as well as a handful of smaller firms in the financial services space.
ISO/IEC 42001 provides requirements for how organizations govern, deploy and oversee AI systems. Certification is awarded following an independent third-party audit confirming that a company has implemented formal processes for AI governance, risk management, ethical safeguards and ongoing oversight.
“AI is rapidly becoming foundational to financial advice technology, but trust and governance must come first,” said Dan Zitting, chief executive officer at Nitrogen. “ISO 42001 certification demonstrates that our AI systems are not only powerful but responsibly built, carefully governed, and continuously monitored. Advisors operate in a regulated world, and when compliance teams ask how our AI is managed, we can now provide independently audited proof.”
The certification reinforces the governance framework behind Nucleus, Nitrogen’s AI-powered advisor empowerment engine embedded directly within individual client profiles. Rather than operating as a standalone chatbot, Nucleus acts as a task-execution assistant inside the Nitrogen platform, allowing advisors to translate brokerage statements into portfolios, turn tax documents into client deliverables, apply security screens with natural language prompts, translate meetings into notes, prepare retirement income maps and generate client reports for download, print or email delivery.
Zocks, the AI assistant already familiar to financial advisors, has launched AI-automated operational and document intelligence capabilities for the life insurance market and is already in use exclusively at two of the three largest U.S. life insurance carriers.
The platform captures and creates notes on household, financial and life details during discovery meetings, then automatically completes paperwork, including carrier applications, fact finders and client intake forms. According to the company documentation, any format is processed in less than 60 seconds and synced to applications and forms.
“Life insurance professionals face a unique combination of high meeting volume, complex documentation requirements, and thin margins for error,” said Mark Gilbert, chief executive officer of Zocks. “The firms that win in this competitive market are using AI to remove friction at every step, from the first meeting to the issued policy to client retention.”
Zocks automatically syncs client information from meetings and documents to customer relationship management systems, illustration and other planning tools. The platform extracts client details required for needs analysis, suitability, case design and administrative work, reducing underwriting delays and “Not In Good Order” cycles.
The platform also automates meeting preparation, follow-up emails and client communications, identifies missing items, schedules exams, confirms beneficiaries, establishes delivery requirements, and sets up payments.
Prospecting and lead-generation platform WealthFeed has launched its Warm Introduction feature set, designed to help advisors identify prospects connected through their existing networks within a database of more than 100 million profiles.
The enhancement to WealthFeed’s Discover feature uses AI to layer network intelligence onto prospecting outreach, solving the time-consuming challenge of manually identifying second-degree connections across large prospect databases.
“With WealthFeed, advisors can now ask, 'Who do I know that could introduce me to high-opportunity prospects?’” said Sam Kendree, co-founder and president of WealthFeed.
Advisors can now find prospects reachable through mutual connections, identify second-degree relationships layered on prospect data, and search their clients’ and connections’ networks for individuals they want to meet.
The Warm Introduction feature is layered on top of WealthFeed’s Discover feature, which offers professional- and consumer-level data, net worth and income modeling, money-in-motion signals, including promotions and business sales, advanced filtering by net worth and job title, and validated contact information.
WealthFeed combines prospect identification, enrichment, monitoring, marketing automation and CRM activation under a pay-as-you-go pricing model, with integrations available for Redtail, Salesforce, Wealthbox and Hubspot.
The prospecting and lead generation space for advisors is becoming increasingly competitive, with several startups vying to introduce new AI-driven matching capabilities, including Cashmere, Catchlight, FINNY, Aidentified, and at the more enterprise end of the spectrum Datalign Advisory, among others.
