About
FP Alpha is an AI-powered financial planning platform designed specifically for financial advisors and wealth management professionals. It uses advanced AI to 'read' complex financial documents—including tax returns, wills, trusts, and insurance policies—instantly summarizing key data and surfacing actionable planning recommendations. Rather than replacing traditional retirement planning software, FP Alpha extends it by covering areas most platforms ignore, such as estate planning, tax scenario analysis, insurance review, and Roth conversion optimization across 16 unique planning disciplines. Advisors can upload client documents and within minutes receive structured insights, planning opportunities, and even hard-dollar valuations of the advice they provide—justifying fees and demonstrating value beyond investment management. The platform includes visual client-facing reports that help advisors communicate recommendations clearly. FP Alpha integrates with widely used industry technology, making it a complementary addition to existing workflows rather than a disruptive replacement. A dedicated customer success resource is included for each client to ensure a smooth onboarding experience. It is well-suited for solo practitioners looking to scale specialized services, as well as larger advisory firms seeking to improve planning consistency and client outcomes.
