wealth.com, the leading provider of estate planning tech solutions for advisors, is looking forward to its next chapter of growth as a cohort of leading VC investors provide a hefty multimillion-dollar capital infusion.
The fintech provider announced Monday that it has secured $30 million in Series A funding, led by GV, to advance its position in AI-driven estate planning. The funding round saw additional participation from Citi Ventures, Outpost Ventures, 53 Stations, and Firebolt Ventures, marking a strong vote of confidence in the platform's growth trajectory.
The company plans to use the new capital to enhance its technology, improve integration capabilities, and roll out new features aimed at financial advisors and their clients. The goal is to further modernize estate planning, making it more accessible and efficient for a wider range of users.
"Half of all personal wealth in the US will change hands over the next two decades," Elena Sakach, a partner at GV, emphasized. "As we navigate the largest wealth transfer in history, the need and opportunity for estate planning solutions has arguably never been greater."
