Nauti's Take
Small advisory teams should first verify which client data Claude can actually process inside Advisor Center, along with access controls, audit logs, and human approval requirements. Start with a tightly bounded workflow such as preparing meeting notes, then assess accuracy and data handling before involving sensitive financial advice or automated recommendations.
