The challenge
Crestfield Wealth is a boutique financial planning practice with 12 advisers across two offices. After every client meeting, advisers were spending 30–45 minutes writing up consultation notes, manually extracting action items, and filing them across disconnected systems. Quarterly client reports — a core part of the firm's service promise — took the operations team days to compile, pulling data from notebooks, emails, and spreadsheets.
The practice director had no unified view of client interactions. She couldn't see which clients hadn't been reviewed recently, which advisers were overloaded, or how engagement was trending across the firm. The admin team spent hours on manual user management, billing reconciliation, and chasing advisers for missing notes.
What we built
After a free consultation and two-week prototype phase, we deployed a two-part AI-powered client intelligence platform:
- Automated meeting capture — the system joins online consultations and records in-person meetings, producing AI-enhanced transcripts with key topics, action items, and client sentiment flagged automatically
- One-click report generation — quarterly and ad-hoc client reports are generated directly from accumulated meeting data, formatted to the firm's templates and ready for review
- Unified client timeline — every interaction, document, and action item lives in a single searchable timeline per client, accessible to authorised team members
- Practice administration portal — a separate dashboard for the operations team with user management, adviser engagement analytics, subscription billing, and firm-wide reporting
The results
- 40 minutes saved per meeting on post-consultation administration
- Quarterly reports generated in seconds instead of days
- 100% of client interactions captured and searchable for the first time
- Practice-wide visibility giving management real-time insight into adviser activity and client engagement
What the client said
"Our advisers were spending more time documenting meetings than preparing for the next one. Now the system handles the capture, and our quarterly reports practically write themselves. The admin portal was the bonus we didn't expect — for the first time, I can actually see what's happening across the practice."
