Is your wealth advisor actually working for you, or just collecting a percentage of your hard-earned money?

In this episode of 10xAI, host Julius Neil sits down with Priyanshi Gupta, co-founder of Alphanso Wealth, to discuss the fundamental shift in how the new generation manages money. Priyanshi shares her journey from building dashboards at DataDog to creating an AI-driven wealth platform that analyzes 2 million data points daily—all without requiring you to move a single cent out of your current accounts.

• The Death of the AUM Model: Why millennials are ditching traditional advisors who take a cut of their assets for a transparent, subscription-based AI model.
• Data vs. Control: How Alphanso provides "accessible wealth management" by connecting to your existing 401ks, Robinhood, and Fidelity accounts to give you a holistic view of your net worth.
• The "Human in the Loop": Why AI can rank stocks and harvest tax losses, but human trust remains the "irreplaceable" factor in financial planning.
• Smart Tax Strategies: Real-world examples of how AI surfaced $3,000 in annual savings through muni-bonds and predicted tax penalties before they happened.
• Beyond Stock Picking: How "Stock Ranking" and "Embeddings" help diversify portfolios by identifying hidden correlations between seemingly different assets.

Whether you’re navigating RSUs, planning for a first home, or looking to optimize your tax strategy, this episode is a masterclass in amplifying your financial future with AI.

Takeaways

• Are people ready to trust AI completely for their wealth?
• A human in the loop is absolutely necessary.
• They build that relationship with the client.
• That human then goes back and puts in into the AI model.
• Having that human in the loop has definitely helped us serve our clients much better.
