Iress’ managing director, UK Wealth, Alex Hore, stated: “The team at PlannerPal share our view that technology should help advice firms work smarter and more efficiently. We know advisers spend too much time on administration and low-value tasks, and AI technology can change this.

“Adding PlannerPal to our list of Xplan integrations helps our advice clients do more of the work that matters, like delivering great, personalised advice and service while taking advantage of the benefits of technology. It also supports our strategy to be a better integrator and business partner.”

PlannerPal CEO and co-founder Mark Whitcroft added: “While AI technology has advanced rapidly, it’s crucial to have the right tools tailored to your specific role and need. PlannerPal empowers advisers and their teams to harness AI without disrupting established workflows. We are thrilled to collaborate with Iress to help advisers realise the immediate value of AI in daily advisory tasks. Our customers have already seen a doubling in the capacity of client interactions, showcasing the efficiency gains achievable with PlannerPal.”
