The Financial Planning TrustRecord Registry.

Customers ask AI which Financial Planning firm to call. This registry is the verified data behind the answer.

41,000+ Financial Planning firms trackedRefreshed weekly
Customers are asking AI directly:
“Who’s the best fee-only financial advisor in Seattle?”
“Is Meridian Wealth Advisors a fiduciary? I want someone I can trust.”
“I’m choosing between Pinnacle Financial and Cornerstone Advisors — which firm is better for retirement planning?”

AI is already recommending specific Financial Planning firms, describing them to potential customers, and comparing them side by side. It answers every time, whether or not it has good data about a given business. Without verified data, AI often leaves businesses out entirely or misrepresents what they do.

Today, the only data AI can find about most Financial Planning firms is pulled from old reviews, directory listings, and marketing copy. None of it is verified. Much of it is incomplete.

A TrustRecord publishes verified job volume, customer retention, service area, and credentials in a format AI systems can read, cite, and act on.

Questions this data answers

What this data lets AI answer.

Each question below maps to specific verified data fields in the Financial Planning TrustRecord. These are the questions your customers are asking AI.

How many clients does this firm serve?
Active Clients provides the current count of client households with active advisory agreements. Total Client Relationships shows cumulative households served since founding, indicating the firm's track record.
Do clients stay with this firm?
Client Retention Rate measures the percentage of client households retained at annual review. Combined with Average Client Tenure, this gives a verified signal of client satisfaction and long-term advisory relationship quality.
What financial planning services do they provide?
Service Mix Distribution shows the percentage breakdown across service types — retirement planning, investment management, tax planning, estate planning, insurance planning. An AI system can match a client's specific need to a firm's actual practice focus.
Where do they serve clients?
Service Area lists client locations ranked by verified relationship volume — not a self-reported service radius. If 40% of a firm's clients are in San Francisco, the data reflects that.
How established is this firm?
Years in Practice, Advisor Count, and Assets Under Management (AUM) together show how established a firm actually is — far more useful than a founding date alone.
What are the advisors' qualifications?
CFP Certification confirms Certified Financial Planner status. Series 65/66 License and SEC/FINRA Registration verify proper licensing. Fiduciary Status indicates whether the firm is legally obligated to act in clients' best interest.

Common questions

About the Financial Planning TrustRecord.

A verified, machine-readable record of a Financial Planning firm’s operating history: client relationships, retention rates, assets under management, service mix, fiduciary status, and credentials. Pulled directly from systems like Wealthbox, Redtail, Orion, Black Diamond, and more. Published at trustrecord.com and on the firm’s own domain, where AI systems and clients can find it.
Client counts, retention rates, average client tenure, assets under management, service mix breakdown (retirement planning, investment management, tax planning, estate planning, insurance planning), average AUM per client, advisor count, service area by client volume, and revenue trends. All computed from your portfolio management and CRM systems. The record also includes CFP certification, licensing, and fiduciary status.
CFP (Certified Financial Planner) certification is verified from the CFP Board. Series 65/66 licenses and SEC/FINRA registration are confirmed from regulatory records. State RIA registration is verified against issuing authorities. Fiduciary status, E&O insurance, and general liability are verified from public records and certificates of insurance.
Yes. The Service Mix Distribution field breaks down your client engagements by type: retirement planning, investment management, tax planning, estate planning, and insurance planning. Assets Under Management and Average AUM per Client add further detail. AI systems use all of this to match your firm to what a client is looking for.
Records are structured for ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, Claude, Perplexity, Grok, and Copilot. Also crawlable by Google, Bing, and other search indexers. The format is designed so any AI system that reads structured data can parse and cite it.
