Webinar with Practifi: Ditch the Widgets: Building an AI-Ready RIA on Structured Workflows and Enterprise Data Models

RIAs are under pressure to grow faster, integrate acquisitions, and deliver a consistently excellent client experience, but legacy “toolbox” CRMs and rigid systems were never designed for that reality. New expectations in an AI world are forcing growing RIAs to rethink their tech stacks and adopt purpose-built, workflow-driven platforms that can actually support scale, integration, and a modern client experience.

Join John O’Connell of The Oasis Group and Conor Curtis of Practifi for this insightful webinar, taking place Wednesday, February 18th at 4pm ET, as they unpack and explain why enterprise data models and well-designed workflows are now the real competitive edge for modern advisory firms. They’ll discuss how structured, consistent workflows create better data, how that data fuels an enterprise model that supports advanced AI use cases, and why widget-based integrations fall short in an AI-first world.

What You’ll Learn

• How to evaluate generic, niche, and purpose-built CRMs—and why certain platforms better support fast-growing RIAs
• Why structured workflows are the real foundation for scale, consistency, and advisor enablement across teams and acquisitions
• How an enterprise data model turns everyday activities into clean, usable data that unlocks meaningful AI use cases
• The limitations of widget- and iframe-based integrations in an AI-first world, and what “true” data connectivity looks like

Learn how structured workflows and enterprise data models can support your firm’s next stage of growth and help you become an AI-ready RIA.

Who Should Attend: This webinar is ideal for RIA executives and COOs at firms pursuing aggressive organic or acquisition-driven growth, as well as operations, technology, and workflow leaders who own CRM, data, and process decisions inside advisory firms. It is especially valuable for enterprise and multi-office RIAs struggling with fragmented data, multiple CRMs, or inconsistent client workflows, and for advisors or practice leaders who are actively evaluating their tech stack.
