Introducing Admin Intelligence: The Engine Behind a More Efficient, More Scalable Firm

Your operations manager sits down to build a new client onboarding workflow. She knows exactly what needs to happen: document collection, compliance review, account setup, welcome email, and first meeting scheduled. The steps are clear but turning that checklist into a process the team can rely on still takes time. She moves between screens, reviews past workflows for reference, and double-checks each step to ensure nothing has been overlooked.

Growing advisory firms encounter this often. As the business expands, the administrative structure behind it becomes more layered and demanding. Workflows evolve. Processes shift. Teams spend more time maintaining what already exists instead of improving what comes next.

Admin Intelligence changes that. It gives operations teams a faster, clearer, and more intuitive way to build, refine, and maintain the processes that keep the firm running smoothly.

Turning Complexity Into Clarity

Admin Intelligence, a new capability within the Practifi Intelligence suite, gives administrative and operations teams a clearer, faster, and more intelligent way to manage the firm. It provides guided support throughout process creation and maintenance so teams can keep workflows aligned with the needs of a growing business.

Our AI-powered workflow creation tool, Smart Process Builder, transforms those plain English process descriptions into structured workflows and visual diagrams. It removes the need for manual process design, lessens reliance on technical resources, and promotes consistency across every part of the business.

Together, these tools simplify operations and help firms scale without unnecessary complexity.

Technology That Fits the Way Teams Already Work

Admin Intelligence lives directly within Practifi. It appears where teams already manage workflows, tasks, and client records, creating a familiar and approachable experience. The system understands natural language, so teams can request or adjust processes simply by describing the outcome they want. Work stays within one environment, which reduces extra steps and keeps teams focused on the tasks in front of them.

Creating a workflow demonstrates how this experience feels. An operations manager typically clicks through several screens, adds each task individually, sets timelines, assigns owners, configures approvals and checks every dependency. Even with a well-documented procedure, building the workflow takes time and attention, and correcting missed details often adds extra work.

Smart Process Builder offers a more streamlined path. The operations manager starts with a short plain language description, such as: “Create a client onboarding workflow. First, collect all the required documents from the client. Then route to compliance for review and approval. If approved, begin account setup and send the welcome email. Finally, schedule the first meeting with the assigned advisor.”

The system produces the complete workflow from this description. Tasks, assignments, approval steps, and dependencies appear automatically. She reviews the diagram, makes a small adjustment, and publishes the workflow. A process that would take over an hour can now be completed within five minutes.

The technology supports the natural pace of daily work. Instead of interrupting routines or requiring new habits, it fits comfortably into how teams already operate.

A Firm That Runs the Way You Want It To

Every firm starts with a simple intention: to serve clients well and build a business that grows with purpose. Over time, administrative demands can pull teams away from that vision. Processes become more complicated; tools multiply, and operational strain gradually sets in.

Admin Intelligence helps restore that original intent. With streamlined workflows, automated processes, and fewer administrative burdens, teams gain more time for clients and greater confidence in their systems. That clarity helps the firm run smoothly as it grows.
