Where a human advisor adds unique value:
- Complex estate planning, trust structures, and legal coordination
- Behavioral coaching during market volatility - talking you off the ledge
- Highly complex tax situations (business sales, concentrated positions, cross-border)
- Relationship and accountability for investors who benefit from human contact
Many users find they can fully replace a traditional advisor with PortfolioPilot - especially on the Gold or Platinum plans. Others use PortfolioPilot for day-to-day portfolio management and bring their insights to a fee-only advisor for periodic review. Pro plan users get a quarterly 1:1 expert call included.
