About Wealthfront

Wealthfront started with the ambition to transform the investment advisory business with the goal to unlock access to high quality investment advice for millions who were underserved by the traditional institutions. We built one of the first automated investment products that allows you to invest in a personalized portfolio of thousands of companies in seconds for a remarkably low fee. We then expanded. We now work with partner banks to offer exceptional banking features through a Wealthfront Brokerage Cash Account which makes it remarkably easy for people to automate their finances end-to-end and eliminated the hassle of money management all of which resulted in attracting more than $50 billion of our client’s hard earned money pioneering the robo-advisor category and transforming the broader industry. And yet we have a long way to go to achieve our mission to build a financial system that favors people not institutions.

Wealthfront’s vision is to make it delightfully easy to build long-term wealth on your own terms. This vision is more relevant than ever because millions more people are getting into the market early and investing their hard earned savings in a handful of stocks. While this is a great way to start it is inconsistent with building long-term wealth. We want to empower young investors to expand their horizon and easily explore and execute on a wider range of investing strategies make informed investment decisions that are consistent with their values and beliefs while also making it effortless to grow and compound their savings exponentially in a way that’s transformational to their lives and their long-term future.
