Unique AI has launched AI Teammates for Financial Services, introducing Remy, an AI teammate designed for financial advisors. The Swiss-founded secure AI platform helps advisors manage client relationships through continuously updated client information. Remy creates a daily action plan using information gathered from across a financial firm’s existing systems.
The company unveiled Remy during a live demonstration at its New York launch event on October 6. The announcement marks another step in Unique AI’s expansion across the United States. During the event, Chief Product Officer Dana Ritter also introduced two upcoming AI teammates. Casey will support compliance teams, while Ivy will assist investor relations professionals.
“Your firm already has the intelligence. What’s missing is memory,” said Dana Ritter, Chief Product Officer at Unique AI. “Remy makes sure what a firm knows about its clients is never rebuilt from scratch and updates continuously. With Casey and Ivy in place for compliance and investor relations, this workforce family clears the bottlenecks that slow wealth and asset management firms down. Advisors, compliance officers, and investor relations teams tell us these are the exact bottlenecks they want solved, and we’re excited to bring these teammates to more firms.”
How Remy Supports Financial Advisors
Many AI assistants begin each session without retaining the context of previous interactions. Meanwhile, financial firms often store client information across email inboxes, CRM notes, and employees’ knowledge. Consequently, advisors may need to gather information repeatedly before making decisions or preparing for client meetings.
Remy approaches this challenge with a constantly updated client memory. It pulls data from CRM systems, core banking systems, custody systems, Outlook, Teams, calendars and meetings. Each fact recorded is also linked to its source and date of publication. And this method provides advisors with a consolidated view of each client relationship. It also allows them to get the right information without having to search across different systems.
Remy supports multiple stages of the client lifecycle. These include lead generation, referrals, onboarding, meeting prep and ongoing account reviews. Every morning the platform offers a dashboard with smart recommendations and pending actions. It ranks those items in order, helping advisors see which tasks to focus on first.
Remy also prepares briefs for meetings scheduled for the following week. It also drafts client emails for advisors to review and send. The platform links client’s personal developments with their financial portfolios. For example, it can connect portfolio considerations with a liquidity event, move or new child. As such, AI for financial advisors can reduce repetitive prep work. This way advisors can spend more time deepening relationships with clients and discovering opportunities.
Unique AI Expands Its Financial Services AI Workforce
The company built Remy to allow financial advisors more control of their workflows. The system has built-in safeguards that prevent the mixing of information between different clients. Sensitive client information is also kept from being shared with other advisers. Also Remy operates in the environment of the firms it is implemented on the Unique AI platform. Deployment options include Azure, AWS, Google Cloud, Private Cloud and on-premise infrastructure. The companies can select any language model they want for their implementation.
The platform also mirrors existing access rights. This allows financial institutions the ability to leverage AI capabilities without giving up their current information control systems. These are important things to think about for organizations that want to use secure AI platforms. Financial institutions need to be careful with sensitive information when bringing automation into existing workflows.
Casey and Ivy Boost AI-Driven Financial Offerings
With the help of Remy, Unique AI is creating tailor-made AI partners for compliance and investor relations. Each AI partner focuses on certain operational functions in financial firms. Casey links the compliance duties performed in back offices with the business processes performed in front offices. It does the work of creating the Source of Wealth narratives as well as doing checks on plausibility and verification.
These features allow compliance teams to carry out their paperwork and customer verification tasks. It also helps establish a link between a compliance process and actions of client-facing teams. Meanwhile, Ivy assists investors’ relations teams by providing information on business performance and investor news. It also handles investor inquiries and helps the teams with their job.
Ivy also manages requests for proposals (RFPs) and due diligence questions (DDQs). It provides properly referenced answers and helps prepare for audits. In such a way, specialists in investor relations can manage the data and create paperwork with the help of an AI partner.
Shared Memory Links the AI Teammates
Remy, Casey and Ivy all work from the same client memory, which is kept constantly up-to-date. And so, the information gathered by a team member is available to other team members. This common approach minimizes the need for reconstruction of information across various workflows. For example, information that is relevant to an advisor may also be relevant to compliance reviews or investor-related activities. The shared memory links these responsibilities without violating the access restrictions of the platform.
The Unique AI platform intends to resolve operational bottlenecks for wealth management and asset management firms with these AI teammates for financial services. Remy is focused on advisor productivity and client relationships. Casey supports compliance operations, and Ivy manages investor communications and documentation. Together the three teammates deliver client information and specialized workflows into a connected AI environment. This provides financial firms with another way to take advantage of artificial intelligence in their day-to-day operations, while maintaining control over their systems and sensitive data.
