How does an RIA with $10B in assets under management (AUM) approach AI? The answer isn't adding more tools to summarize the work. It's using AI that can actually do it. Most AI tools built for wealth management stop at insight. They read a document, identify what needs to happen, and hand a summary back to a person who then has to log into the system and do the work themselves. That handoff from flagging next steps to actually doing them is where most of an RIA's operational burden actually lives. AlphaRail was built to close it.
The Agilno team recently presented at Wealth Management EDGE '26 in Boca Raton, where our CEO, Petar Vukasinovic, demoed AlphaRail live on stage. The comments from the panel of judges centered on a single point that stood out in the room: the platform doesn't just recommend action, it executes it.

What AlphaRail Is
AlphaRail is the AI operator for RIAs. It executes onboarding, approvals, compliance operations, and advisor workflows automatically, with every action controlled, attributed, and auditable.
In practice, that covers the work that keeps a firm running:
- Client onboarding. KYC, AML, account opening, document collection, and approvals completed in sequence, without manual coordination between steps.
- Compliance operations. ADV workflows, disclosure reviews, policy-driven checks, and regulatory tasks executed on schedule and logged automatically as they run.
- Portfolio operations. Rebalancing triggers, trade routing, exception handling, and the downstream coordination that follows - all within firm-defined parameters.
- Advisor service workflows. Transfers, beneficiary changes, distributions, paperwork, and follow-ups, routed and completed without ops bottlenecks.
- Audit trail and reporting. Every action timestamped, attributed, and exportable, producing regulator-ready documentation as a byproduct of the work itself.
The firm sets the rules once; who can execute, approve, override, or escalate each workflow and AlphaRail follows those rules on every action from there. Every step is logged, tied to a responsible system, rule, or user, and automation stops exactly where the firm says it should. It's also built to work with the systems a firm already has such as CRM, custodian, document systems, and internal tools.
Automation vs. an AI Engine
The important distinction between AlphaRail and the "AI-assisted" tools already on the market is easy to lose in marketing language, but it’s more clear when the two are placed side by side.
What Judges Said About AlphaRail
Three judges evaluated the AlphaRail demo live at the Wealth Management EDGE 26’:
"I think one thing that I appreciate about what you guys are doing is it's actually innovative. You're taking that workflow process to the next level and actually executing action items. And maybe there's certainly some approvals that you're asking for, which is great. But it's not just summarising information for you." — Verity Larsen, Founder and CEO, Versoft Consulting
"I was very impressed with the fact that there was a lot of complexity you could see behind the scenes, but you had a nice layer of simplicity to hide it." — Tim Welsh, President, Nexus Strategy
"The degree to which you've gone through to execution, including in-pain, filling out of forms and websites, you've thought through making this an actual virtual assistant really well." — Jason Pereira, Woodgate Financial
If your team is still chasing down onboarding steps, approvals, and beneficiary updates by hand, that's exactly the work AlphaRail was built to take off your plate.
