Clients open up when advisers put down their pens.

More talk. More action. Delighted clients.
What if the most powerful thing AI could do in client meetings wasn't note-taking, but making conversations better?
As a boutique Sydney-based wealth management practice with a small team and a culture built on genuine connection, the quality of every conversation at Fortitude Private Wealth matters. Being fully present with clients isn't a nice-to-have - it's fundamental to relationships.
With Contented handling documentation, figures, action points and nuance, advisers can maintain eye contact and let the discussion flow naturally. Clients share more. Meetings are richer.
"It's made us a lot more present with our clients. When you're focused on getting every little thing written down you're not able to maintain eye contact and the conversation can be disjointed. With Contented, we can actively listen."
Accurate notes still get done. The follow-up still goes out. Clients now receive structured, consistent documents after every meeting - in Fortitude's bespoke branded templates, formatted for their specific workflow. And the quality of the relationship in the room is better for it.
"Other AI tools summarise based on however that AI works. With Contented, we don't even have to think about it - all we do is hit a button and everything is sorted for us."

Contented is used far beyond client meetings - it's on for internal strategy sessions, staff meetings and impromptu brainstorms. The real value isn't only in the documentation, it's in what happens when documenting is no longer the focus.
"It's created a lot more space to focus on business growth and other areas that we'd like to improve. Internal conversations are now more framed around development instead of putting out fires."
Much of the conversation around artificial intelligence in professional services focuses on automation and efficiency - doing more with less, faster and cheaper. But what happens when the primary benefit isn't about speed at all?
