hit the ceiling

Boo lives in Slack, Teams, or wherever SCS works. It reads, writes, researches, builds, and follows up, with human judgment always in the loop.

REAL-WORLD SCENARIO

Client meeting prep
in 2 minutes, not 45

Today, manually
  • Pull up the client's accounts across custodial platforms
  • Find notes from the last 2 meetings in the CRM
  • Check recent market conditions relevant to their holdings
  • Review any life changes, beneficiary updates, or RMD deadlines
  • Compile everything into a conversation outline
With Boo
  • "Prep me for the Johnson meeting at 2pm"
  • Boo pulls CRM notes, account summaries, and recent correspondence
  • Adds relevant market context for their allocation
  • Flags upcoming RMDs, rebalancing needs, or plan changes
  • Delivers a one-page briefing before the advisor walks in

"I used to spend the first 20 minutes of my morning pulling data for back-to-back client meetings. Now I ask for the prep and it is ready before I finish my coffee."

05
REAL-WORLD SCENARIO

Retirement plan reviews
that used to take a week

Quarterly plan reports

Boo generates branded plan performance reports for each sponsor client. Fund returns, fee comparisons, participant stats, and fiduciary notes, formatted and ready for the committee meeting.

Fee benchmarking

Every plan needs a fee reasonableness analysis. Boo pulls current 408(b)(2) disclosures, compares against industry benchmarks, and drafts the summary. What took a consultant 4 hours takes 10 minutes of review.

Participant education

Build enrollment guides, investment education decks, and retirement readiness materials customized to each employer's plan lineup. Updated automatically when fund options change.

Compliance monitoring

Track ERISA deadlines, Form 5500 due dates, and plan amendment requirements. Get alerted 60 days before a deadline, with draft documents attached.

06
REAL-WORLD SCENARIO

Investment committee
research and commentary

Weekly market brief

Every Monday morning, Boo compiles LPL research, Fed commentary, economic data releases, and earnings summaries into a digestible brief for the investment team. No one has to aggregate it by hand.

Fund due diligence

When evaluating a new fund or replacing an underperformer, Boo pulls Morningstar data, expense ratios, manager tenure, peer comparisons, and style drift analysis into one report.

Client-facing commentary

Turn the investment committee's views into polished client communications. Market updates, portfolio commentary, and quarterly letters drafted in SCS's voice, ready for advisor review.

Keith Swanson's investment team already does the thinking. Boo handles the gathering, formatting, and distribution so the committee spends its time on decisions, not data assembly.

07
REAL-WORLD SCENARIO

Client service operations

Account paperwork

New accounts, transfers, beneficiary changes, and address updates each follow a different custodian's process. Boo generates the right forms, pre-fills client data, and tracks completion status so nothing falls through.

RMD tracking

Required Minimum Distributions have hard deadlines and real penalties. Boo maintains a rolling calendar of every client's RMD date, calculates the distribution amount, and alerts the CSA team 90 days out.

Client milestone alerts

Birthdays, anniversaries, age-based eligibility changes (Medicare at 65, Social Security at 62/67/70), and account review dates. Boo surfaces the right touchpoint at the right time.

Multi-state compliance

SCS advises clients in 18 states. Each has different registration, privacy, and disclosure requirements. Boo tracks which states require what and flags when a new client triggers a filing.

08
REAL-WORLD SCENARIO

Growing the book
without growing the load

Retirement plan prospecting
  • Plan research. Boo pulls public Form 5500 data for a prospect's existing plan. Assets, participant count, fees, current provider, and recent amendments, compiled in minutes.
  • Custom proposals. Generate a branded RFP response tailored to the prospect's plan size, industry, and employee demographics.
  • Competitive analysis. Compare the prospect's current provider fees against SCS's model. Show the savings before the first meeting.
Wealth management growth
  • Exit planning support. Griffin Smith's CEPA practice needs financial models, timeline projections, and scenario analysis for business owners approaching liquidity events.
  • Client onboarding. New client welcome packets, IPS documents, risk questionnaire summaries, and account setup checklists generated from intake data.
  • Referral follow-up. When a client refers someone, Boo drafts the intro email, pulls relevant background, and schedules the follow-up reminder.
09
HOW IT WORKS

From a question
to a repeatable process

STEP WHAT HAPPENS EXAMPLE
01 Ask Boo something "Pull the Form 5500 data for Acme Corp's 401(k) plan"
02 Boo researches, drafts, or builds Pulls filings, compiles plan details, compares fees, drafts the summary
03 Human reviews and decides Consultant adjusts the analysis, refines the approach, or asks for more
04 Boo learns the pattern "Do this for every new prospect and post results to #retirement-plans"
05 It compounds Each shortcut becomes a permanent capability for the firm
