Why Choose Us
We craft custom AI-powered automations tailored to the unique demands of financial advisory. Starting with a thorough compliance audit of your existing processes, we integrate secure data handling compliant with HIPAA, SOC 2, and GDPR. Our approach eliminates the patchwork of subscriptions that create compliance gaps. Instead, we build a unified system—like a fortified vault for your client data—that automates routine tasks such as transaction reconciliation and regulatory reporting. This not only mitigates risks but positions your firm as audit-ready at all times. Proven in high-stakes environments, our solutions have helped advisors reduce compliance incident rates by 65%, ensuring you focus on growth, not audits.
What Makes Us Different:
Compliance Confidence That Drives Advisory Excellence
Ironclad Risk Mitigation
Ironclad Risk Mitigation: Our automations embed SOC 2 Type II controls into every workflow, reducing exposure to fines from regulators like the SEC and FINRA—financial firms using similar systems report a 70% drop in compliance violations, with automated AML screening preventing up to $500K in potential penalties per incident. Like a vigilant sentinel guarding your portfolio, this ensures every client interaction meets regulatory standards without manual oversight.
Streamlined Audit Preparedness
Streamlined Audit Preparedness: Generate comprehensive audit trails automatically compliant with SEC Rule 17a-4, cutting preparation time from weeks to hours for Form ADV filings. Advisors leveraging our tech have passed SEC reviews with zero findings and reduced remediation costs by 40%, transforming audits from dreaded events into routine validations of your operational strength.
Enhanced Data Privacy and Efficiency
Enhanced Data Privacy and Efficiency: Automate GDPR-compliant data flows with encryption standards like AES-256, securing client information while accelerating processes like KYC onboarding by 50% and reducing data breach risks under CCPA. This secure-by-default infrastructure acts as an impenetrable barrier against breaches, allowing your team to deliver personalized advice with unyielding confidence in jurisdictions like the EU and US.
What Clients Say
""Before AIQ Labs, our manual KYC checks were a nightmare during peak tax seasons—we nearly missed an AML flag on a high-net-worth client's offshore account that could have triggered an OFAC violation costing six figures. Their automation caught it automatically via real-time screening and cut our onboarding time from 5 days to under 24 hours. We've been audit-free for two years now, with zero SAR filings needed.""
Sarah Mitchell
Chief Compliance Officer, Apex Wealth Management LLC
""Integrating their compliant workflows with our Salesforce CRM was seamless, and the SOC 2 Type II features gave us the edge in a recent FINRA targeted examination under Rule 4511. We saved over 200 hours quarterly on quarterly FOCUS reports, letting us take on 15% more clients without adding staff—our AUM grew by $50M last year alone.""
David Chen
Managing Director, Horizon Capital Partners
""As advisors dealing with health-related financial planning for elder care estates, HIPAA compliance was always a headache with our legacy systems. AIQ's system logs everything securely under 45 CFR Part 164, and we've eliminated data silos that used to trip us up during CCPA audits. It's boosted our efficiency by 30% without any compliance worries—highly recommend for integrated legal-financial practices.""

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does AIQ Labs ensure my automation complies with SOC 2 standards?
We prioritize SOC 2 from the outset by conducting a full controls assessment during discovery. Our engineers then embed security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy principles into every automation layer. For financial advisors, this means built-in encryption for client data, access controls that log every interaction, and regular penetration testing. We've helped firms like yours achieve SOC 2 Type II certification within six months, reducing audit preparation by 50%. Unlike off-the-shelf tools, our custom builds are tailored to your exact regulatory needs, ensuring continuous compliance without ongoing vendor audits.
What happens to data privacy under GDPR in your workflows?
GDPR compliance is non-negotiable in financial advisory, so we design workflows with data minimization, consent management, and right-to-erasure features at the core. Our AI automations pseudonymize sensitive client info during processing and provide automated tools for data subject requests. For instance, in portfolio management flows, we ensure cross-border data transfers meet adequacy requirements. Clients we've served report zero GDPR incidents post-implementation, with processing times for privacy requests dropping from days to minutes. This secure-by-default approach mitigates fines—up to 4% of global revenue—and builds client trust through transparent handling.
Can your automation handle SEC audit requirements for financial advisors?
Absolutely. We specialize in SEC-compliant systems by automating record-keeping under Rule 17a-4, including durable, tamper-proof storage of communications and trade data. Our solutions generate instant reports for examinations, with full audit trails tracing every advisory decision. In one case, a mid-sized firm used our tech to breeze through an unannounced SEC review, saving thousands in consultant fees. We integrate with your existing systems to create a single source of truth, ensuring accuracy and completeness. This not only passes audits but positions you for efficient scaling as your AUM grows.
How do you address HIPAA for advisors dealing with health-linked financial plans?
For advisors offering services like retirement planning tied to medical expenses, we build HIPAA-compliant automations that protect PHI through end-to-end encryption and business associate agreements. Workflows segregate health data from financial records, with access limited by role-based controls. Our AI flags potential breaches and automates incident reporting within 60 days as required. Firms using our systems have maintained perfect HIPAA compliance scores, avoiding the average $1.5M fine for violations. We also provide training modules to keep your team aligned, ensuring seamless integration without disrupting advisory operations.
What if my firm's compliance needs evolve with new regulations?
Regulations like those from FINRA or the CFPB change frequently, so our solutions include modular architecture for quick updates. Post-deployment, we offer maintenance packages that monitor regulatory shifts and adapt your automations—such as enhancing AML checks for new SEC rules. This proactive stance has kept our clients 100% compliant during transitions, like the 2023 updates to data privacy. Unlike rigid subscription tools, our owned systems allow you to own these evolutions, minimizing downtime and costs while maintaining audit readiness.
Is the automation scalable for growing advisory practices?
Yes, we design for growth, handling everything from 50 to 5,000 clients without performance hits. Our infrastructure uses cloud-agnostic scaling with SOC 2-monitored resources, ensuring workflows remain compliant under load. For example, one advisor scaled AUM by 40% post-implementation without adding compliance staff. We stress-test against peak scenarios like tax season, providing elasticity that prevents bottlenecks and regulatory lapses, all while keeping your data secure and accessible.
