DeepVest with Toby Wade | E446
Evolving an AI and agentic advisor workspace.
In this episode of FinTech Impact, Jason Pereira sits down with Dr. Toby Wade, CEO of DeepVest, to explore how wealth management firms can leverage AI without worrying about false information or incorrect math. Wade explains how DeepVest’s "hallucination-free" AI stack uses pre-coded, deterministic calculations for structured financial data, ensuring the system returns exact portfolio analytics and refuses to guess unsupported numbers.
Listeners will learn how DeepVest evolved from natural-language backtesting into a complete advisor platform that accelerates proposal generation, portfolio stress-testing, and meeting prep. By integrating directly with existing CRMs and custodians, the platform helps advisors win new business and scale AUM without taking on the role of a custodian or trading desk.
Give this episode a listen to discover how deterministic AI is giving wealth managers institutional-grade analytics without the risk of hallucinations.
