Communication

The inbox keeps working when you are away.

Firm-branded messages convert people who are not on the platform yet, then keep giving advice once they are. Outbound history lives on the household, so you are not hunting threads across Gmail and a separate CRM.

When they convert, they leave the lead series. The newly active drip takes over.

Lead conversion

These emails get leads onto the platform.

Intro, follow-up, reminder, and monthly variants go out automatically, in the firm brand, to people who are not users yet. Leads get the series without anyone writing it by hand each week.

Newly active drip · Platform users

They keep getting advice after they convert.

Sixteen firm-branded variants cover contribution, credit, debt, health, retirement, and cash for people already on the platform.

Four channels

One record for the whole relationship.

Notifications land in the client app

Alerts land in the app where clients already check net worth, debt, and next steps, no advisor tap required.

Outbound email keeps running

Outbound email runs automatically for drips, engagement, and account notices, so the inbox works while you don’t.

The Athena AI inbox drafts the reply

Client emails forward into the Athena AI inbox. We match the client, draft from their data, and answer back, advisors don’t run the reply queue.

Athena AI answers in the app

Always-on chat answers questions in the advisor’s voice. The conversation is the channel, continuous, automated, client-facing.

Mission Control

All communication is managed and viewed there.

App notifications, email, the Athena AI inbox, and in-app chat all sit on the household in Mission Control, next to trading and the plan. You do not hunt threads across Gmail and a separate CRM.

See it in Mission Control
  • Every channel on the household record
  • Same context as investing and wealth leads
  • Supervise volume without becoming a newsletter operator
  • Escalate drafts when judgment is required

Every message has a job to do.

Communication FAQs

Will automated messages feel spammy?

Generic nurture feels spammy because it ignores household state. Athena triggers on real conditions, missing match, debt, credit, retirement readiness, and points back into the client experience.

Can Athena draft email replies?

Yes, match the client, draft from their data and methodology, escalate when judgment is required. Approve-to-send vs auto-send is an implementation policy choice.

Is this a marketing automation tool?

Marketing tools optimize campaigns. Athena communication optimizes advice continuity on the same graph as planning and Mission Control.

Are leads and clients on the same emails?

No. Leads get a conversion series whose job is to get them onto the platform. Platform users get the newly active drip, ongoing advice on match, credit, debt, retirement, and cash. When a lead converts, they move.
