Eton Solutions, a software product and services firm based in North Carolina, is claiming a world-leading position in the generative AI space. 

The firm announced its launch of EtonGPT, which it claims is the first generative AI platform designed specifically for family offices. The new tool integrates exclusively with the company’s AtlasFive wealth management platform for family offices, which serves over 750 families globally, to streamline data management and enhance productivity.

Underpinned by patent-pending technology, EtonGPT's hybrid AI platform combines transactional capabilities with AI-driven data extraction and analysis to help family offices manage their investment and asset portfolios more efficiently. The platform allows users to search and extract information from over 250 types of documents, such as trust and estate plans, and it integrates that data with AtlasFive’s existing functions. According to Eton Solutions, this could result in a two-to-fourfold increase in operational efficiency for its clients.

Satyen Patel, Eton Solutions' executive chairman, highlighted the impact of AI on family offices, which have traditionally relied on manual processes.

“With the launch of EtonGPT, the world’s first family office LLM, we are embracing cutting-edge technology and reshaping the future of family office management across the globe,” Patel said in a statement, underscoring the potential of AI to make “resilient and future-ready” family offices.

Several family offices have already adopted EtonGPT. Timothy Macherone, chief operating officer at Shade Tree Advisors, noted that the platform has automated many processes, reducing human involvement by 50 percent. “We see countless opportunities to unlock efficiencies in our legacy processes through the use of EtonGPT,” Macherone said.

Andrew Hull, chief executive of Todd Family Office, acknowledged the challenges posed by AI but emphasized the importance of responsible use. “We’re working with Eton Solutions to pioneer a Responsible AI framework that harnesses the full power of AI with transparency, ethics, and trust at its core,” Hull said.

Eton Solutions is also focusing on addressing cybersecurity and other risks around AI, working with its Customer Advisory Board to ensure that its use remains ethical, secure, and transparent.
