Question 1

Does Orion Portfolio Solutions have a built-in phone answering feature?

Accepted Answer

No. Orion is a wealth management technology platform focused on portfolio accounting, trading, compliance, client portals, and financial planning — it does not include phone answering. AgentZap adds a dedicated AI receptionist that answers calls 24/7 and works alongside your Orion platform to keep your advisors focused on client relationships.

Question 2

How does AgentZap work with Orion?

Accepted Answer

AgentZap connects to your Orion workflow through calendar sync, CRM webhooks, and API integrations. When a client or prospect calls, the AI receptionist checks advisor availability, books meetings, qualifies prospects, and logs call details to your CRM. Setup takes about 10 minutes with our financial services onboarding specialists.

Question 3

How much does an AI receptionist for Orion firms cost?

Accepted Answer

AgentZap starts at $109/month for 150 minutes of call handling — compared to $3,500+/month for a full-time receptionist at a wealth management firm. That is a 97% cost savings while providing 24/7 coverage. For firms managing significant AUM, capturing even one additional qualified prospect per month more than pays for the service.

Question 4

Can the AI handle calls during market volatility?

Accepted Answer

Yes. During market downturns or volatility events, call volumes can spike 3-5x normal levels. AgentZap handles unlimited simultaneous calls, so every concerned client reaches a professional voice immediately — no busy signals, no hold times, no voicemail. The AI reassures callers, schedules advisor callbacks, and triages urgent requests.

Question 5

Is AgentZap compliant for RIA firms using Orion?

Accepted Answer

Yes. AgentZap is designed with financial services compliance in mind. The AI never provides investment advice, never discusses specific portfolio performance, clearly identifies itself as an AI assistant, and maintains detailed audit trails. All call recordings and transcripts are securely stored for SEC and FINRA regulatory review.

Question 6

Can AgentZap qualify prospects for my Orion-powered firm?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. AgentZap asks customizable qualification questions including investable assets, retirement timeline, planning needs, and current advisor situation. Qualified prospects are prioritized for immediate advisor follow-up with full qualification notes synced to your CRM.

Question 7

What appointment types can AgentZap book?

Accepted Answer

AgentZap handles all advisory appointment types: initial prospect consultations, quarterly portfolio reviews, annual financial planning sessions, retirement planning meetings, estate planning discussions, tax planning reviews, and urgent market-related calls. Each type can have custom durations and advisor assignments.

Question 8

How do I set up AI phone answering with Orion?

Accepted Answer

Setup takes about 10 minutes: (1) Connect your calendar and CRM to AgentZap, (2) Configure your firm greeting, advisor roster, and qualification questions, (3) Forward your business phone to your AgentZap number. Our financial services onboarding team handles all configuration and testing to ensure professional call handling from day one.

Question 9

What other financial platforms does AgentZap integrate with?

Accepted Answer

AgentZap integrates with all major financial advisor platforms including Black Diamond (SS&C), Riskalyze (Nitrogen), eMoney Advisor, MoneyGuidePro, Redtail CRM, Wealthbox, Salesforce Financial Services Cloud, and 50+ other tools. The AI receptionist works alongside your entire Orion tech stack.

Question 10

Can AgentZap handle multiple advisors and locations?

Accepted Answer

Yes. AgentZap supports multi-advisor, multi-location firms with intelligent call routing based on client relationships, AUM tiers, advisor specializations, and availability. Each advisor gets their own calendar integration and client assignments.
