Use AI Without the Risk

Speed Up Your Work, Stay Compliant

AI support that fits your workflow. A second set of eyes that YOU control.

60% reduction in SOA prep time

75% fewer revision cycles

Why firms can't wait another quarter

The problems you're managing right now:

Your paraplanners burn 6-8 hours per SOA

Regulatory changes mean less revenue per client, but prep time hasn't changed. You can't afford manual processes that worked 3 years ago.

→ Every month delayed = 500+ manual hours you can't recover

Can't hire paraplanners fast enough

Recruitment takes 3-6 months. Your current team is stretched thin. One resignation creates an immediate capacity crisis.

→ Manual processes that worked for 50 SOAs/month break at 100

Inconsistent SOAs are compliance time bombs

Different advisers using different approaches means different risk levels. Regulators are tightening quality expectations.

→ Every inconsistent SOA increases your audit exposure

Old handwritten documents blocking automation

Legacy client files with handwriting slow everything down. We automated one firm's process from 45 minutes to 7 minutes per document, even doctor-level bad handwriting.

→ Manual transcription doesn't scale

Paraplanners waste hours hunting for clauses

Searching SharePoint, asking colleagues, checking old SOAs. Knowledge trapped in people's heads or buried in folders.

→ This inefficiency compounds as your team grows

Delivery delays are killing client experience

12+ day turnaround times when clients expect 5. Every delayed SOA risks client churn.

→ Your competitors are getting faster

These problems compound monthly. BackPro stops the bleeding without changing who signs off, who reviews, or who is accountable.

How firms use BackPro

Firms typically use BackPro to:

Support first-draft SOA sections using approved templates

Practice managers load firm-approved templates into BackPro. Paraplanners use AI to generate consistent first drafts, reducing manual typing and copy-paste errors.

Standardise language across advisers and paraplanners

Ensure every SOA uses consistent terminology, disclosure language, and regulatory wording, reducing audit findings and rework.

Retrieve internal policies, procedures and SOA clauses quickly

Paraplanners ask BackPro questions like "What's our standard insurance advice disclosure?" and get instant, sourced answers from approved firm documents.

Reduce rework by improving draft quality before compliance review

AI checks for completeness, consistency, and common errors before the SOA reaches compliance, reducing back-and-forth cycles.

Human review stays in the loop at all times.

Approved content is ingested into a private AI environment

Your firm's SOA templates, policy documents, and research libraries are loaded into your own isolated AI instance. No data leaves your control.

Your team is onboarded with clear usage boundaries

Paraplanners and advisers receive training on what BackPro can and cannot do, with clear examples and guardrails.

What practice managers say

"We went from 12-day SOA turnaround to 6 days. The compliance team was skeptical at first, but the consistency and audit trail won them over."

"The biggest win wasn't speed, it was eliminating the 4-5 revision loops. Our paraplanners are less stressed and advisers are happier."

Frequently asked questions

Common questions from practice managers

Do we have to change our existing SOA templates?

No. BackPro uses your existing templates. We don't force you to adopt new formats or structures. Your firm's approved templates are loaded into the system, and paraplanners continue working with familiar documents.

What if the AI generates something wrong?

Human review is mandatory. BackPro assists drafting, it doesn't replace compliance review or adviser sign-off. Every SOA still goes through your existing approval process. The AI supports your team, it doesn't replace their judgment.

How long does implementation take?

Most firms complete pilot setup in 2-3 weeks. Full firm rollout typically takes 4-6 weeks depending on the number of advisers. We work with your schedule and can start with just 1-2 paraplanners.

Can we trial this with one paraplanner first?

Yes. We recommend starting with a small pilot (1-2 paraplanners) before wider deployment. This allows you to prove the value and fine-tune the approach before rolling out across the firm.
