## The Problem

Onboarding a new 401(k) TPA client means IPS drafting, account opening at the custodian, ACAT transfers, and 11 documents — and delays cost the AUM to hesitation.

## What We Build in ASC

AI drafts the IPS from the risk questionnaire, pre-fills custodian forms in Relius, orchestrates ACATs, and chases missing signatures — days-to-funded drops from 21 to 7. Purpose-built for teams running ASC — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

## ASC Integration Approach

1. **Audit your ASC configuration.** We map the specific ASC objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your 401(k) tpa practice.
2. **Build on the ASC API or agent.** Integration happens inside ASC — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
3. **Human-in-the-loop handoff.** Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in ASC with full context — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
