For RIAs, wealth managers & family offices · 206(4)-1 aware

Discretion is your brand. Invisibility is not.

Wealthy prospects now check advisors through ChatGPT and Perplexity before any introduction, and the engines answer with names. We make your firm one of those names for the searches that matter. Every public word stays inside the SEC Marketing Rule.

Aday Interactive, Inc. is a Coral Gables AI systems firm. We help RIAs, wealth managers, and family offices get described accurately by AI engines and handle inquiries with discretion, with every public claim built against SEC Rule 206(4)-1.

No credit card, and no obligation.

The new first impression

Families ask AI before they call.

ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google’s AI answers now hand families a short list of names, and they cite the sources they trust. We build so your firm is one they can find, trust, and cite by name.

Why this matters right now

Even a warm referral now gets checked by AI before the first meeting. Three things decide whether that check helps you: what AI says about your firm, Marketing Rule problems hiding on older pages, and whether your ADV and your website tell the same story.

The check

The quiet referral now gets checked by AI

Before a referred prospect calls, they ask an AI engine about you. If the engine cannot describe your firm, or describes it wrong, the warmest referral arrives cold, or not at all.

206(4)-1

Marketing Rule problems hide in old pages

A testimonial from 2019. A performance figure without the required disclosures. A "Top Advisor" badge with no disclosure of what was paid for it. The Marketing Rule made all of it examinable, and examiners use the same automated scans we do.

Drift

Your ADV and your website may tell different stories

Entity names, AUM claims, and service descriptions that drift between Form ADV, the site, and LinkedIn are exactly what an examiner flags. AI engines trip on the same inconsistency.

This cost is invisible by design: a prospect who checks you through AI and moves on never tells you. So ask ChatGPT about your firm by name, and read the summary your next referral reads.

Free estimate · your numbers only

What are the prospects who do not engage worth to your firm?

For fee value, use the first-year advisory fee on a typical new household. For example, $1M under management at 1% is $10,000. Pick your main service, then move the sliders to your own numbers.

Your main service

Each choice loads starting values for that kind of work. They are rough examples, not industry data.

This is an estimate, not a prediction. Not every one of these is winnable, and we will not tell you what your rate will become. Nobody honestly can. Based only on the numbers you enter. Not a projection, benchmark, or guarantee of results. Nothing you enter is sent to us.

How to read this estimate. It multiplies the numbers you enter, nothing more. It does not count costs, refunds or unpaid bills, seasonal swings, or how much new work your team can take on. The starting values are rough examples, not industry data or results from any firm. This is not legal, financial, or tax advice, and Aday Interactive, Inc. does not promise any result.

01

Marketing Rule aware by design

We build public copy against SEC Rule 206(4)-1 from the first draft: testimonials, performance, and third-party ratings handled with the disclosures the rule requires.

02

Discretion first

Precision over volume. Your firm is named for the searches you choose and stays quiet everywhere else. No mass-marketing noise around a private brand.

03

Honest measurement

We architect for accurate AI description and measure it on a set schedule: Day 30, 60 and 90 on the 90-Day Plan, then monthly if you keep us on hours. We never guarantee a specific AI output, because no honest firm can.

Questions firm owners ask

7 answers
Does the SEC Marketing Rule really cover our website?
Yes. SEC Rule 206(4)-1 defines an "advertisement" broadly, and most of a registered adviser's public site qualifies: pages that offer advisory services or that could influence a prospect count. That includes testimonials, performance claims, and third-party ratings anywhere on the site. The scan checks the pages most likely to be treated as advertising.
Can we show testimonials now that the rule allows them?
Yes, with disclosures. Since the Marketing Rule took effect, testimonials and endorsements are permitted only when you disclose whether the person is a client, whether they were compensated, and any material conflicts of interest. The scan flags testimonials or endorsements that appear without those disclosures nearby.
How do wealthy prospects actually use AI to pick an advisor?
They verify. Before a call, a referred prospect asks an engine what it knows about your firm and how you compare to one or two others. If your public details are thin or inconsistent, the engine either says little or gets it wrong, and the referral cools. We make your firm's details clear and consistent so the engine describes you accurately.
Is AI visibility compatible with a discreet brand?
Yes. This is precision, not volume. We structure your firm to be named for the specific searches you want, such as fee-only fiduciary or multi-family office in your market, and to stay silent everywhere else. Discretion and accuracy are not in tension.
What does the free scan check, and is it safe?
It reviews public pages only, with no login and nothing installed. It checks seven things: Form ADV access, a Form CRS link, testimonial disclosures, performance-claim disclosures, third-party rating disclosures, entity-name consistency, and financial-service structured data. Nothing is stored beyond the report we generate for you.
What does an engagement cost?
It starts free with the scan, then $14.97 for the full report, then a $97 founder-led audit, then done-for-you work, with full pricing on our pricing page. Each step is priced on its own. Two exceptions: the Growth Systems Intensive credits toward Implementation, and Custom AI Build Scoping credits toward the Proof of Concept, when you start within 60 days. We never guarantee a specific AI outcome. We build for accurate citation and measure it honestly.
Do you understand family offices specifically?
Yes. Single-family and multi-family offices have different registration and privacy postures, and both put discretion first. We work within GLBA and Regulation S-P privacy expectations and keep the public footprint deliberate: enough for the right introductions, nothing more.

Response time

Response time is a target, not a promise. Our AI intake agents aim to answer in under 60 seconds, and typically respond within one to three minutes. Actual timing depends on third-party voice, SMS, and network delivery, which we do not control. We measure the real number and report it in your dashboard rather than guarantee it. Speed also depends on correct account setup, carrier registration (A2P 10DLC), and your intake configuration.
