End-to-end estate planning platform Wealth.com announced that it had raised $30 million in Series A funding led by GV (formerly Google Ventures). This investment validates the growing significance of combining scalable next-generation technology with the essential human touch that is required for financial planning.

The Series A funding round included participation from Citi Ventures, Outpost Ventures (an investment platform of Neuberger Berman), 53 Stations (supported by The Pritzker Organization), and Firebolt Ventures (headed by renowned technology investor Gokul Rajaram).

This new funding round will drive Wealth.com’s continued expansion and product innovation, further establishing its position as the go-to platform for estate planning among financial advisors and wealth management firms. This funding round will support the enhancement of its innovative technology and integration capabilities and the development of new features tailored to the needs of advisors and their clients.

The funding round also follows wealth.com’s recent launch of its Family Office Suite, a collection of sophisticated estate management tools designed for high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth clients. 

The suite enhances advisors’ ability to efficiently manage complex estates with features that simplify estate visualization, optimize tax planning, and streamline reporting processes. By integrating AI with human expertise and an intuitive user experience, wealth.com has firmly established itself as an industry leader. 

A team of industry veterans with deep expertise in trust and estate law, personal financial management, and data security launched Wealth.com. Its leadership team brings professionals with pedigrees from institutions like Goldman Sachs, SoFi, Accenture, Perkins Coie, Google and Wells Fargo. With a proven track record of building exceptional client experiences, this team is uniquely equipped to tackle the challenges of modernizing estate planning.
