What Makes Us Different:
Quantifiable Gains That Drive Your Bottom Line
Slash Processing Time by 75%
Slash Processing Time by 75%: RIAs typically spend 15-20 hours weekly on invoice tasks for Form ADV disclosures. Our automation handles capture, validation against engagement terms, and GL posting in seconds, reclaiming those hours for high-value client consultations. This boosts productivity, allowing your team to manage 25% more portfolios without added headcount, directly improving AUM growth.
Unlock 4x ROI Through Cost Reductions
Unlock 4x ROI Through Cost Reductions: Manual errors cost mid-sized law firms an average of $50,000 annually in rework, IOLTA discrepancies, and FINRA penalties. By automating three-way matching and trust reconciliations, we cut these risks, delivering payback in 3 months. Firms report 40% lower AP overhead, freeing capital for growth initiatives like expanding M&A advisory services.
Enhance Compliance and Audit Readiness
Enhance Compliance and Audit Readiness: In a landscape where 60% of RIAs face annual SEC examinations, our systems embed SOX-compliant workflows with immutable audit trails. Automatic logging of retainer disbursements and anomaly detection in fee schedules reduce violation risks by 90%, providing defensible records that speed SEC audits from weeks to days—keeping your practice unassailable amid increasing regulatory scrutiny.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our team was buried in reconciling AUM-based advisory fees against client investment policy statements—easily 12 hours a week gone. Now, the custom automation flags mismatches against Form ADV schedules instantly, and we've cut our quarter-end close from 10 days to just 2. It's transformed how we serve high-net-worth clients without the regulatory hassle."
Sarah Jenkins
Chief Compliance Officer, Apex Wealth Partners (a $500M AUM RIA)
"As a boutique litigation firm, manual invoice approvals for expert witness fees were a nightmare, especially with IOLTA trust account rules under state bar guidelines. AIQ built us a system that integrates directly with Clio case management, saving us about 18 hours weekly on vendor matching. Last quarter, we avoided a potential $25,000 ABA compliance fine thanks to its detailed audit trail—solid, reliable work."
Michael Torres
Operations Manager, Horizon Family Law Group (15-attorney firm specializing in trusts and estates)
"We were juggling Excel sheets for vendor reimbursements in due diligence projects, which slowed everything down and risked errors in our 10-Q SEC filings. The AIQ solution automated it all, integrating with Salesforce CRM overnight for seamless expense coding. Productivity jumped 30%; my advisors now focus on portfolio strategy, not paperwork. ROI hit in two months flat with zero audit findings."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your invoice automation ensure compliance with financial regulations?
Compliance is core to our design. We embed rules specific to regulations like SOX, FINRA, and GAAP directly into the AI logic, automatically validating invoices against your firm's policies during processing. For instance, the system cross-checks entries against client contracts to prevent unauthorized disbursements from trust accounts. All actions generate immutable audit logs, which have helped clients reduce audit preparation time by 70%. Unlike generic tools, our custom builds are tailored to your exact regulatory environment, with built-in encryption and access controls to safeguard sensitive data. We've audited over 200 financial workflows to ensure zero tolerance for errors that could trigger penalties.
What kind of time savings can financial advisors expect from this service?
Advisors typically reclaim 15-25 hours per week previously lost to manual tasks like data entry and reconciliation. Our AI handles invoice capture in under 10 seconds per document, automates approvals, and integrates directly with your CRM—eliminating the back-and-forth. In one case, a mid-sized advisory firm cut their AP cycle from 7 days to 18 hours, allowing partners to focus on portfolio strategies. These gains compound: with 40% efficiency boosts reported across clients, teams manage larger client loads without overtime. We benchmark against industry standards, targeting a 75% reduction in processing time from day one.
Is the solution customizable for our specific legal or financial workflows?
Absolutely—customization is our hallmark. We start with a deep dive into your operations, mapping nuances like multi-tier approvals for legal retainers or fee reconciliations in advisory portfolios. The AI is trained on your historical data for precision, integrating with tools like Clio for law firms or Wealthbox for advisors. No templates here; we build a bespoke system that mirrors your processes, such as flagging variances in expense categories tied to client mandates. Clients see 95% automation rates because it's not one-size-fits-all—it's engineered for your exact needs, scalable as your practice evolves.
How secure is the AIQ Labs invoice automation for confidential financial data?
Security is non-negotiable in our builds. We use AES-256 encryption for all data at rest and in transit, with SOC 2 Type II compliance baked in. Role-based permissions ensure only authorized users access sensitive invoice details, like client billing info. The system includes AI-driven threat detection to spot unusual patterns, such as anomalous approval requests. For financial advisors, we adhere to standards like those from the SEC, providing full audit trails for every transaction. In regulated deployments, we've maintained 100% uptime without breaches, giving firms peace of mind when handling high-stakes data like trust fund disbursements.
What is the typical ROI timeline for implementing your invoice automation?
Most clients achieve positive ROI within 60-90 days. By automating 80-90% of manual AP tasks, you save on labor costs—equivalent to $20,000-$50,000 annually for a 20-person firm—while reducing error-related penalties. Our systems deliver immediate wins, like faster cash flow from quicker vendor payments, and long-term gains through scalability. For example, a legal practice we served saw payback in 45 days via 20-hour weekly savings and 50% fewer compliance reviews. We provide a detailed ROI projection during consultation, based on your volume and benchmarks from similar financial-legal operations.
Can this integrate with our existing accounting and CRM software?
Yes, we specialize in deep, two-way integrations. Whether you're using QuickBooks for accounting, Salesforce for CRM, or specialized tools like PracticePanther for legal workflows, our engineers create secure APIs that sync data in real-time. This eliminates silos—no more manual exports or double-entry. For financial advisors, we've linked systems to auto-populate client ledgers from invoices, ensuring accuracy in portfolio billing. Setup is seamless, with testing to confirm 99.9% reliability, and we support ongoing maintenance to adapt to software updates without downtime.
